Abstract

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Wearable technologies have added completely new and fast emerging tools to the popular field of personal gadgets. Aside from being fashionable and equipped with advanced hardware technologies such as communication modules and networking, wearable devices have the potential to fuel artificial intelligence (AI) methods with a wide range of valuable data. METHODS Various AI techniques such as supervised, unsupervised, semi-supervised and reinforcement learning (RL) have already been used to carry out various tasks. This paper reviews the recent applications of wearables that have leveraged AI to achieve their objectives. RESULTS Particular example applications of supervised and unsupervised learning for medical diagnosis are reviewed. Moreover, examples combining the internet of things, wearables, and RL are reviewed. Application examples of wearables will be also presented for specific domains such as medical, industrial, and sport. Medical applications include fitness, movement disorder, mental health, etc. Industrial applications include employee performance improvement with the aid of wearables. Sport applications are all about providing better user experience during workout sessions or professional gameplays. CONCLUSION The most important challenges regarding design and development of wearable devices and the computation burden of using AI methods are presented. Finally, future challenges and opportunities for wearable devices are presented.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
