Fitness trackers are everywhere in 2014 and 2015. Industry leaders like Garmin and Fitbit introduced new devices while relative newcomers Withings and Misfit are offering trackers that are actually fashionable. The Misfit shine can be worn as a necklace and on a Swarovski band. Fitbit has a line of jewelry from designer Tory Burch.
The new trackers go beyond just tracking steps, distance, pace and sleep and now offer a variety of functions such as caller id, altitude, and apps.
Smart bands for health tracking including blood pressure, blood oxygen level, temperature, and others are being developed to work with smartphones. The data collected by the bands can then be used with various health related apps. The market for wearable health and fitness bands is growing quickly with new companies quickly joining the market such as Under Armor and Swatch.
