Open source writswatch ?

Jun 17, 2012 5 Replies

Hi,



Idly browsing the threads here I followed the link to the adafruit wesite and saw their wristwatch. This made me wonder whether there is an open-souce version out there with a graphic lcd display so that I could write my own functionality into it ? Anyone know of anything like that out there ?



Thanks,



Boo

I've orderd one. Would be fun to write some Apps for my iPhone, which does something interesting with the watch.

Get something with cellphone functionality, and you could have a writs watch -- I'm not sure how many lawyers would want to buy it, though.

Very beat a networked programmable display and watch. We can tell where the world has come when a cortex M3 is being used as a watch and display driver.

This device has potential now but when it gets updated with the latest mems chips and (possibly GPS) only an imagination will bring out its potential
