"In 2017 we'll see new form factors emerge to track fitness activities beyond the wrist," says Harry Wang, senior director of research for Parks Associates, a market resesarch and consulting firm. In-ear "'hearables' with fitness tracking function and digital patches are the most likely emerging form factors, as well as sensors built into exercise garments like sports bras, socks, and shorts."

From the article "Fitness Trackers Leave the Wrist Behind" by Dan Tynan.
