Watchful

Exploring visual, auditory, and haptic feedback in wristwatches.

Watchful explores the question of how a wristwatch can facilitate one’s everyday life. Haptic, auditory and visual outputs have been added to the traditional watch to call someone’s attention to an upcoming appointment or event. A laboratory has been developed with which various feedback modes can be explored, combined, and tested.

This short term project was designed within two weeks at the University of Design Schwäbisch Gmünd and realized with vvvv and Arduino.
