The wearable technology market builds IoT devices that receive biometric data through a physical structure, like a ring or a watch, that keeps them close to the body. Healthtech applications for wearables include tracking body functions like heart rate, exertion, steps and sleep patterns — with additional applications in gaming, retail and fashion. In India, wearable tech is a growth market, with fitness trackers representing a particularly robust niche of the sector — there are over 100 wearable tech startups in Bengaluru alone. Read on to learn about Bengaluru’s leading wearables companies.

Samsung Electronics is a multinational electronics company. It makes smart phones, tablets, audio and video equipment as well as wearable technology. Its primary wearable product, the Galaxy Watch, is a smartwatch that can track the wearer’s heart rate, sleep patterns and exercise sessions, including a total “physical readiness” score that is based on the previous day’s sleep, steps and heart rate.
Wicked Technology makes biometric and wearable products for athletic training. Designed for use by coaches and athletes of all levels, its product line includes MotionLink-G — a program that pairs a wearable device with a machine learning-enabled app to offer analysis of form, effort and performance.
Wagr.ai is a pet care startup that provides retail pet nutrition and products, AI-powered pet care advice and virtual veterinarian consults. One of its products is the Wagr Tracker, a precision-GPS-enabled wearable for animals that attaches to a collar and tracks location and movement patterns. Designed for pet owners who are at work or traveling, Wagr can track walks and prevent pet loss.
Stellapps is an IoT company that works on the dairy side of the agricultural industry. Its connected devices can assess milk quantity and quality, both incidentally and as trends over time — as well as manage tanker storage and transportation. Wearables for dairy cows, which help with herd management, estrus detection and preventative healthcare, are part of the Stellapps system.
Bluarmor is a retail tech company that makes connected cooling helmets for bicyclists. Using connected helmet communication devices with universal intercoms, the helmet’s headsets can provide connected communication with up to twenty riders. A noise-measuring algorithm assesses wind noise to keep channels clear, and cooling water is circulated throughout the lining of the helmet to control the rider’s body temperature.
