While on holidays I found in the studio of my father a small 1.54 inches epaper
Why not to add a tinyPICO esp32 as a controller and make a real epaper clock using a customized version of the clock firmware?
Me thinks is a cool idea and will be a cheap make, with the exception of the esp32 that is about 22 dollars. But is worth it!
The difference with cheap boards makes it a good choice:
- Deepsleep consumption with dotstar led Turned off is 0.08 mA
- Has 4 MB spiram (pseudo static ram)
- It’s super small!
Additionally we will need a:
- Small battery
- 3D printed case for the watch body
- Watch strap
no buttons for now! It will be a button less digital clock
A small preview just with the epaper on my wrist :)
Do you like the idea? Would you walk with an esp32 in deepsleep mode on your wrist?
