I’ve been working on a bespoke smartwatch for kids with Type 1 diabetes & their parents. The watch presents reliable CGM data and not much else, so the only distractions from the watch are important medical alerts. It has a novel haptic algorithm that taps at a frequency based on the current BG trend, the idea is the wearer can develop a sixth-sense of their BG without looking at the watch at all. The entire watch is custom-made from the PCB up. I have a small batch of prototypes assembled and my son has been wearing his at school. I have a few screenshots up at my product studio website: https://subtractive.computer https://subtractive.computer
I’m considering how to take the watch to market as-is, or if I pivot the watch to be a fully open-source Pebble successor.
