Problem

As technology continues to advance, people are looking for more convenient ways to access information and stay connected. Smartwatches have become increasingly popular due to their ability to provide quick access to notifications, fitness tracking, and other features. However, many smartwatches on the market are expensive and do not offer all of the desired features.

Our team recognized this problem and set out to create an affordable smartwatch that would provide users with all of the necessary features without breaking the bank.

Solution

We decided to create our own smartwatch from scratch using affordable components. Our team consisted of a software engineer, a hardware engineer, and a designer who worked together to create a functional prototype.

The hardware engineer was responsible for designing and building the electronics for the watch. They used an Arduino board as the main processor and added sensors for tracking heart rate, steps taken, and other fitness metrics. The software engineer then wrote code to interface with these sensors and display the data on the watch's screen. The designer created a sleek design for the watch that was both functional and aesthetically pleasing.

Impact

Increased accessibility: Our affordable smartwatch made it possible for more people to access advanced technology without having to spend a lot of money.
Better health tracking: With sensors for heart rate and steps taken, users were able to better track their fitness goals.
Positive feedback: Our smartwatch received positive feedback from early adopters who appreciated the affordability and functionality of the device.

"This smartwatch has been a game-changer for me. I'm able to track my fitness goals without spending a fortune on an expensive device."
