Question

What are the possible downsides to wearable technology? Are there any ways to design around these issues?

Answer 1

It is pretty easy to drop things especially if you’re a clumsy person. If you were to go outside whilst wearing wearable technology, if it would start to rain it could possibly break because it got wet. It could also be a hazard due to it being electric, it could possibly lead to a shock. A way to design around those issues is to put some sort of casing that protects it from water, breaking from an impact of a fall, or just not wearing it outside in general.

Answer 2

Hello :D

Their are multiple downsides to wearable technology such as bad waterproof designs which can be dangerous. Also, some wearable technology is badly designed and may be uncomfortable to wear.

I hope this helps :)
