Chronio: a 3D-printed, Arduino-based smartwatch #WearableWednesday

Thanks to Max for writing in about this awesome smartwatch project! Check out more here.

Chronio is an Arduino-based 3D-printed Watch. By not including fancy Wifi and BLE connectivity, it gets several months of run time out of a 160mAh button cell. The display is an always-on 96×96 pixel Sharp Memory LCD. If telling the time is not enough, you can play a simplified version of Flappy Bird on it.

DIY watches often consist of a pcb and screen wrapped in duct tape. I wanted to change that by designing a 3D-printed case. It is closely oriented on the Pebble Time.

Currently I am testing the battery life. The third and final PCB version is finished. Project logs will be updated over time.
