Which of the following is an example of wearable technology used to monitor performance?

• A. Polyethylene athletics track
• B. Fit Bit
• C. Latex for swimming caps
• D. Video analysis programmes

Answer: (B)

Wearable technology is data-collecting equipment worn on the body to track performance. A Fit Bit fits this idea perfectly: it’s worn on the wrist and continuously records metrics like steps, distance, calories burned, and heart rate, giving immediate feedback on training and progress.

The other options don’t fit as wearable tech. A polyethylene athletics track is a surface, not a device. Latex swimming caps are fabric or material, not technology. Video analysis programmes use footage to assess performance, but they aren’t worn on the body and don’t collect real-time wearable data.
