This project is based on ATCwatch, a custom firmware for the p8 smartwatch. I did this project as a way to learn about embedded programming, and I have extensively commented / documented my code so that people can learn more about the architecture of ATCwatch (since I followed the same tight main loop for control rather than a realtime OS like other projects use. Huge thanks to Aaron for all his work, I would have never have got this far on my own. This has been a great learning experience in writing efficient embedded C(++), and learning about the nRF SDK.
Due to the discontinuation of nrf52832-based p8 smartwatches, and a focus on University work, this project isn't currently worked on.
- Get heart rate sensor working
- Implement main screen, and a framework for adding new screens
- Switch to using LVGL fonts
- See https://0x416c6578.github.io/ for information about the switch to LVGL fonts
- Better activity estimation with heartrate sensor
- Support reading from and writing to the flash chip
- Faster text writing routine that writes an entire character's data into the LCD buffer before writing over SPI
- Writing integers to the display (both with and without preceding zeroes)
- Removed usage of C++ Strings, just because
- Activity monitor with approximate distance travelled
- Stopwatch implemented (works in background also)
- The app draw is different to ATCwatch, with a row of apps along the bottom, and buttons / swipes between them
- Device doesn't wakeup on wrist raise (increases battery life a bit)
