wimm wearable android module


'wimm' extensible touchscreen platform for wearable devices


the 'wimm' module has been developed by wimm labs as an extensible, customizable touchscreen module
that can be incorporated into devices ranging from watches, remotes, and monitoring tools, small enough
to be integrated into wearable products.

featuring a 1-inch square, full-colour 160 x 160-pixel capacitive touchscreen, the wifi and bluetooth -ready
modules feature a built-in accelerometer and magnetometer. they run an android-based operating system,
compatible with android, blackberry, and iOS devices, and designed for easy application development.
at 32 x 36 x 12.5mm (1.3 x 1.4 x 0.5 inch) in size and a weight of 22g, the 'wimm' modules are meant
for integration in a range of products and uses, ranging from use as pendants and keychains
to mounting on bicycle handlebars to embedding in wallets or electronic gadgets. possible applications
include use as calendars and appointment books, pedometers, calorie counters and other health trackers,
mobile payment solutions, music and video players, file storage, and universal remotes.
