Most of the wearable sports and fitness devices function on GPS, wireless networks, and M2M (machine-to-machine) technology. The battery life of the fitness devices is very low because the power consumption of the technologies used in these devices is very high. This high power consumption starkly affects the duration of usage. The lifespan of Google Glass battery, for instance, is 4-8 hours while in intensive usage. Therefore, high power consumption coupled with low battery life will reduce the demand for smart wearable devices. Key vendors
