Abstract

The first item used in the history of wearable technologies is the pocket watch. In the 1800s, instead of learning time from fixed points, people became able to carry Time in their pocket.When you wanted to know the time, all you had to do was reach into your pocket and check the palm-sized pocket watch. The only handicap of this revolution was that you had to use one hand to control time. Wearable technologies work as extensions of the human body to benefit the individual. People have different capabilities in both control and control of the body as wearable technologies into any place,even among 2013 to 2014, glasses, bracelets and earrings, designed as there is a significant change in the use of wearable products.

Wearable technologies produce alternatives that facilitate both usage habits and Life Dynamics by providing individual data. Over time, these technologies will be included in your clothes, accessories, fashion sense, parts of your body, and even in your lens. In this study, “wearable technological products”designed by students from different undergraduate degrees were examined within the scope of Product Design & Fabrication course. The designs are both used as accessories and considered as having a technological product feature. Products include designs to bring a new solution to a problem or to improve existing solution products. As a result of the study, it was realized that wearable products should closely follow fashion as well as technology.It has been seen that capturing both technology and fashion can be achieved by keeping aesthetic concerns as high as function when developing products.
