Smart Watch

What It Does and How It Works

• It's a computerized watch
• It uses a smart-phone's OS
• It's connected via Bluetooth or WiFi
• Has many features coming from the phone
• Usually with a touchscreen UI

Give An Example

• The system can be found in any smart phone
• Everything in the phone is available on the watch
• It can be found on anybody
• It's very convenient and fashionable

Input & Output Devices

• The phone connects to the watch via Bluetooth and WiFi
• It projects the information from the phone to the watch   
• The charger is another form of a input device, it charges the watch
• The watch sends information to thee phone through the WiFi

Programming

• The programmers needed to know...
• Size, Computing Power, HDD space, Battery power
• They needed to know if it was touchscreen or not
• It uses the same OS as the phone it's connected with
• The same OS is used to compute all the commands

Storage

• There's a cloud storage 
• There's also a direct information link with the phone
• There's also a small backup drive in the watch
• The backup drive can be used to save information
• Examples are: photos, text files and music

OS

• The OS in the system is updated along with the phone
• When the phone updates, the watch (if connected) will update too
• The basic OS has shortcuts (e.g power and home to screenshot)
• It has a basic UI
• It's programmed to stay in sync with the phone

Problems

• The lack of computing power, storage and connectivity issues
• Some say it heats up too often
• Many claim that it hurts to wear it

Improvements:

• I would spend more to upgrade commputing power
• I would add a cooling system
• I would also hire someone to design a comfortable watch

Next-Gen

• We would make the watch holographic
• A bit bigger
• Compatible with every phone
• Water-proof
