Building a SmartWatch


https://www.electronics-lab.com/building-a-smartwatch/

Benjamin Blundell has been working on his DIY smart-watch: I have an issue with smart-watches. Watches in general fall into one of two categories: a tool to tell the time, or a fashion statement. Increasingly, I believe the latter category is larger than the first. With the advent of the iWatch, Pebble and the like, […]
