The concern I anticipate is that, unlike cell phone RF radiation which exists only during a phone conversation, an "internet wearable" would seem to be transmitting for extended periods of the day. There may be health concerns with wearables which are not yet apparent in heath data gathered from shorter-duration cell phone exposures.

Satisfactory solutions (if a problem exists) may be out there, but this is a concern which presently has my attention. Some solutions might include very low transmission powers, transmit on demand, or maybe use of a "wideband" transmission algorithm which distributes the energy over a wider frequency spectrum, thus reducing resonant exposure levels. I'm not a wiz on this stuff, just curious and cautious.

Again, I don't see this as a concern in the industrial environment because transmission energies can be kept extremely low in these controlled surroundings.
