Top 100 Gadget Trends in March

From Hologram Tablet Technology to Digital Boxing Gloves

— March 29, 2015 — Tech
Augmented reality, wearable tech and green appliances are some of the awesome concepts included in the top March 2015 gadget trends.

In terms of augmented reality, we're seeing a wide-spread proliferation of the technology across all industries. No longer limited to gaming and entertainment, AR capabilities can be applied to the realms of education, business and even travel. Wearable tech, on the other hand, is optimized for fitness capabilities. Users are not only interested in tracking their data -- heart rate, calories burned, etc -- but sharing it with their social network. The ability to make fitness progress public amongst friends and family is a great motivator to continue working out.

Overall, the top March 2015 gadgets trends are fulfilling consumers' needs for enhanced experiences that can be shared socially.
