Brainstorming
For my project, I chose to build a smartwatch of my own, similar to Galaxy and Apple Watch. Today, I brainstormed the basic materials and functions of the smartwatch.
These are what I came up with.
Components
- 1.28 Inch Round Circular TFT LCD Touchscreen Display Module
- 400mAh LiPo Battery - charge through ESP32
- XIAO ESP32C3 - main processor
- MPU6050 - Inertial Measurement Unit
- SHT40 - Temperature and Humidity
- BMP581 - Air Pressure and Altitude
- VEML6035 - Ambient Light Sensor
- 2x Buttons
- CPT-9019A-SMT-TR - Passive Buzzer
Functions
- Touchscreen User Interface
- Automatic Screen Turn On/Off - MPU6050
- Stopwatch/Timer/Alarm - Play sound with the buzzer
- Temperature/Humidity/Air Pressure/Altitude Readings
- Automatic Brightness Level Adjustment - Ambient Light Sensor
- Simple music player with buzzer
- Bluetooth/WiFi connection to mobile and retrieve external data such as local weather/sports/stocks

These are what I came up with for now and I might add on to this as I work on the project. The next steps would be to design a schematic and printed circuit board, which is for the first time in my life and I am excited about it. This is a huge project, so it will take some time to finish it. Below is the picture of what I brainstormed on Google Docs.
