ABSTRACT

The Internet has grown which let human being to access and utilize the services on a universal scale using traditional hosts, mobile devices such as smart phones across the globe. By linking the objects and devices, the Internet of Things (IoT) will fully utilize the network potential and facilitate the application of innovative services to a large set of scenarios, such as home and building automation, smart cities, healthcare, etc. Wearable devices can continuously capture several times a second for days, weeks, or months which negatively impact in the storage volume and battery capabilities thus making the wearable devices too bulky that is impractical to wear. Wearable technology prevents an unknown from gaining access the devices without authentication. The wearable technology built a solution which can sense the wearer of the wearable device with the help of bioelectrical impedance signal. Analyst and developer predict that wearable technology will impact the cultural and technological landscapes soon and it may change the nature of hand-held devices, mobile phones entirely. Some of the wearable devices include glasses, watches, e-textiles and smart fabrics, contact lenses, caps and beanies, jewellery such as bracelets and rings. This chapter begins with 132the introduction of wearable Internet of things, its attributes, and footprint of wearable technology in pharmaceuticals by considering the ethical issues and safety measures.
