The smart bands remind the elders to take their medications at the right time.

Some of the wearable technology gadgets come with an option to get the readings by connecting the devices to a computer to Smart Phone. Alternatively, the devices with digital screen display the results instantly.

Single sensor devices that record the single activity as well as multi-sensor devices are available. More and more people opt for complex devices that carry multiple functions. This is just the start of the wearable technology and this would create a revolution in the health industry.

These bands are available in different types. They appear as a simple fashionable bracelet without monitors, where the sensors record the activities. Besides, the sensors and display options are embedded in watches.
