An Arduino smartwatch called the O Watch created by 8 year old developer Omkar, who has been creating an Arduino projects since he was six.
Has now transformed his O Watch smartwatch into a kit that has been designed specifically for children to learn coding and more about 3D printing.
The O Watch is fitted with an Arduino compatible core, together with a color OLED screen and a LiPo battery. There will also be an enhanced edition available that includes a sensor board equipped with a 3-axis compass, temperature, barometric pressure and humidity. Enabling a more immersive learning experience using a range of different data input devices.
