"The expansion of mobile device platforms to wearable form factors creates many opportunities for developers to build new services and applications," said Harry Wang, director, health and mobile product research, Parks Associates. "For the smart watch, its location on the body and easy access put it in a great position to act as a remote control for smart home features, a role currently occupied by the smartphone. APIs will play a key role in developing functions for the smart watch such as turning on lights remotely, closing garage doors, adjusting thermostat settings, and many more features."
