Abstract
Proposed in recent years, smart health has gained great attention after its debut. Undoubtedly, wearable devices will bring great convenience to the development of smart health. With the aging trend, increase of empty families and solitary elderly people, and the growth spurt of chronic disease, wearable devices have come to its spring. But due to the lack of standards in the industry, the data collected by wearable devices is unreliable, and is difficult to be accepted by doctors. Besides, there are also some problems concerning with privacy. In this paper, the advantages, disadvantages, opportunities and obstacles of wearable devices are analyzed, and some development suggestions are provided.
