description The advent of the Internet of Things (IoT) era has propelled the development of wearable technology. Wearable devices are widely used in medical, healthcare, sports, and safety applications, bringing more convenience to the living environment. Wearable devices can be worn on the body, collect body data using sensors, and process the collected data to obtain valuable information. IoT enables devices to connect and exchange and transmit data. Wearable devices in IoT can collect data for analysis and automatically adjust wearable device functions by connecting the obtained information to other devices. In this paper, we collect and organize articles on wearable devices used in IoT from 2017 to 2022 in terms of their applications, advantages, and disadvantages. We evaluate articles to identify wearable device application areas and evaluation criteria. Finally, we discussed the open issues of wearable devices and clarified how to face the future development and efforts of wearable devices in IoT.
