A Research and Markets report predicts massive growth in the industrial wearables market, with annual growth expected to be 50.2% between 2019 and 2024.
Valued at $1.1 billion USD in 2019, the report projects industrial wearable market growth to hit $8.9 billion USD in 2024.

Industrial wearables have a narrower focus that represent a subset of the overall business wearables market. As opposed to office and retail wearables, industrial wearables are hardware that's unique in use and design tailored to production lines, factory floors, and warehouses.
The report (purchase required for access) also cites a number of potential industrial wearable applications, including:

Projection of instructions onto a heads-up display; Real-time communication with experts when executing difficult tasks; and Virtual reality training of new employees.
There are nearly limitless applications for wearable tech in industrial settings which, combined with the skyrocketing growth of industrial IoT hardware, could lead to a total transformation of industrial work.
