There are an assortment of new gadgets labeled as wearables, including bracelets, smartwatches, and eyewear. Because these devices are designed to be worn close to the body, they're ideal for monitoring how active we are, our sleep quality, how many steps we take during the day. But consumer awareness remains low, and it's still very unclear if these devices will be made available at prices that mainstream consumers find acceptable.

We also outline the various barriers to entry for each, and look at how wearables could bring along new platform wars.
