Explanation:
Body worn devices are installed into your clothes or clothing accesories (into shirts, hats, glasses, cell phones and so on), and that is how you can "wear" them. These devices are mainly used as hidden appliances, for example a body-worn camera is used for making secret recordings.
In addition, there are built into clothes mobile phones. They're mostly integrated into jackets and coats. The handling buttons are in the sleeves, and a head set is added as well.
