Abstract

Wearable gadgets are technological devices with limited computational power that can be worn by users, providing them with information and seamless access to their master devices. It allows gadgets to connect and exchange data, enabling various tasks to be completed online. Wearables have revolutionized human health monitoring, capturing data like blood-oxygen levels, step counts, and GPS tracking, which is stored in the cloud. However, additional user identification methods like PIN entering are cumbersome and prone to security breaches like assaults involving visual hacking. In response to these concerns, various advanced authentication techniques have emerged. In our study, we thoroughly examined different user validation mechanisms intending to provide thorough direction for further study in wearable technology domain.
