Smart watches are the must have gadget of the moment. They have been a popular theme on the blog too, with various weird and wonderful schemes suggested. One of the main issues the blog has highlighted is that not everyone who likes these weird and wonderful schemes necessarily needs all the expensive features that come included in a smart watch, and more importantly they don’t want to pay for features they don’t need.

Wear Big Ben LIVE on your wrist!
Design submitted by Andy from the Ukraine.
Andy says: I decided to design concept watch based on hi-tec technologies, internet and on-line camera.
I wanted to offer you an up close and personal uninterrupted view with Big Ben by designing a watch that can display the image of Big Ben clock in real time. The main idea is to utilize a camera aimed at this architectural masterpiece, in this case London iconic clock tower. The camera sends a video GPS signal via satellite which captured and displayed by Ban Watch on its large sized LED display while the bottom screen is used to display user’s local time.

Code TFT watch emulates computer terminal.
Design submitted by Scott from the UK.
Scott says: I’ve watched a fair amount of sci-fi, from Star Trek to The Matrix and of course Tron! 😉 In nearly all of these there are super hi-tech computers and interfaces that look unbelievably complex, almost impossible to understand; yet they always have someone happily pushing buttons seemingly understanding everything?!
I’ve always thought they must know something we don’t, there must be some kind of trick or some sort of ‘code’. So i decided to see if i could come up with my own interface/display that would look like gibberish to most, and obvious to others. Kind of like the dreaded ‘Blue screen of death’ on a broken computer.
