Is military wearable the next "gold mine"?

Are you really sure about the market development opportunities in the wearable industry? Rather than killing in the sports monitoring market with smart watches and bracelets as carriers, it is better to choose to enter the military field where the carrier equipment is more extensive, but the technical requirements are relatively higher.


“Where is the opportunity for the development of wearable devices?” In recent years, the development of wearable devices has been the focus of attention in the development of the scientific and technological community and the entire human society. After years of development, the wearable device industry has not yet formed a mature and complete industrial chain structure, and even the direction of industrial chain technology has not yet been truly geographically clear. As a result, in the face of the development bottlenecks of current wearable products such as smart watches and smart bracelets, many people are beginning to have doubts and even adopt an attitude of “not optimistic”. But I still can't help but ask: Is the market for the wearable industry really accurate?

A few days ago, the US Department of Defense's injection of a strong shot into the wearable industry may give us some pointers. According to a recent report from Reuters, US Defense Secretary Ashton Carter approved a $75 million grant of $480 million for the development of a wearable device. The fees were given to relevant technology giants, including Harvard University, Boeing, and Apple. Among them, Harvard University is recognized as a top-notch school in the world and has a group of powerful scientists. The addition of Boeing seems to have nothing to do with wearable devices, but its unique advantages in the industrial Internet and aviation industry cannot be underestimated; Apple is currently the leader in the world's most powerful smart terminal hardware products.

The Pentagon's huge investment, with the help of top scientists and related industry giants, will accelerate the development of the wearable industry, and will even trigger a new round of military competition between the world's major powers based on wearable devices. . In the past, military competition between countries mainly focused on large-scale and heavy weapons. It can be understood as a contest on weapons. This is also the key to determining a country's military strength. The United States has invested heavily in wearable devices, and the core reflects how to use the current scientific and technological strength to expand the warfare capabilities of soldiers. For example, for the soldiers in the field, with the help of the front-end technology tools of wearable devices, the combat capability will be greatly improved.

The Pentagon's huge investment in the wearable industry not only allows us to see the important value of wearable devices in the future military field, but also tells relevant practitioners that military wearables may be a very good "gold mine" market. . In particular, for domestic wearable device manufacturers, this will undoubtedly be a new opportunity.

Through the development of smart clothing and its introduction into the military field, it will achieve better results than smart watches. With the help of smart textiles, the related sensors, storage batteries, diodes, etc. can be integrated into the clothing, which can realize positioning, communication, discoloration, environmental monitoring, and monitoring of the life characteristics of soldiers. For example, in the explosion of chemical chemicals in Tianjin, if soldiers wear such smart clothing with monitoring function, they can monitor the environmental threat index information when entering the danger zone, and give corresponding warning information to the soldiers. To a certain extent, the safety of soldiers is guaranteed.

The same is true for smart glasses. Compared with the current exploration in the civilian field, smart glasses will be applied more rapidly in the military field. Especially for soldiers fighting in the field, smart glasses can not only identify the environment, but also become information collection, guidance, communication, etc. center.

Similarly, smart shoes are also very important for soldiers, such as Lemur Studio, a design company in the capital of Colombia has put forward an innovative concept, they printed the coil on a thin conductive material, placed on the sole, generating electromagnetic fields And to detect the electromagnetic field generated by other large metals around. Once a mine appears in the detection range, the shoes will generate a signal and transmit it to the bracelet or other information carrier to tell the user to be careful or change the direction of travel.

A suggestion to entrepreneurs: friends who are interested in starting a business in the wearable field, instead of fighting in the sports monitoring market with smart watches and bracelets as carriers, may choose to enter the carrier equipment more widely, but the technical requirements are relatively more Explore the high military field. This field not only has high commercial value, but also can make a great contribution to the country's military construction. At present, in the construction of basic technology in this field, the team of the Hong Kong Polytechnic University has made a lot of explorations in smart textiles, and its key core technology is second only to Google. This will be a good connection point for entrepreneurs who are interested in building military wearable devices, especially clothing and shoes.

A modern Gel Battery (also known as a gel cell) is a VRLA battery with a gelified electrolyte; the sulfuric acid is mixed with fumed silica, which makes the resulting mass gel like and immobile. Unlike a flooded wet cell lead-acid battery, these batteries do not need to be kept upright.
