Wearable devices bring us an innovative human-computer interaction which plays an irreplaceable role in enhancing the users’ ability in environmental awareness, acquirements of their own state and “ubiquitous” computing power. Since 2013, wearable devices have quickly appeared around us. In this article we classify most of the wearable devices which have been appeared in the markets or reported in the literature according to their functions and the positions where they are worn. Furthermore, we review the technologies related to wearable devices, such as sensing technology, wireless communication, power manager, display technology and big data. At last, we analyze the challenges which the wearable devices will face in near future, and look forward to development trends of wearable devices.
