  • Abstract
    Wearable smart devices industry is booming up and being highlighted by the market recently as an alternative of post smart phone industry. Wearable smart devices have an intrinsic nature that their visual style should be very important like fashion as well as the sophisticated function is. They also have unique characteristics of industrial ecosystem different from the ecosystem of the smart phone industry. In this paper, we insist that there are a huge number of vertical markets for wearable smart device product and services. We also suggests that the small and medium companies should be more aggressive to advance such vertical markets with the application products and services with components as well as solutions.
