Idk I feel like the people who back things on kickstarter have their expectations set way too high (and obviously the people running it are naive and play into that) but good lord you guys funded $70k for an oscilloscope and you’re upset it takes a decade? You are astoundingly lucky this even came out, and it only did because the guy that ran it has a heart of gold.
People really need to start to understand what it takes to bring a product to market before they start backing kickstarters

Alternatively people should stop looking at Kickstarting as buying or investing in a product. It’s closer to a donation to help someone try and realize their idea. You support cool idea you think should exist and that should by your primary motivation. Getting something out of it is just added bonus.
I’m sorry. It looks like garbage. I can’t stand 3D printed stuff for anything other than prototypes.
And that armband is definitely a cheap Aliexpress bulk item. Seen a hundred of them.
The 3D printed watches are prototypes. Here’s what the shipped product looks like: https://twitter.com/BitBangingBytes/status/1695192177310150993
This is 3D printed.

That just looks 3d printed on a textured sheet
It is… Looks like the textured plate from Prusa. Not even the “nicer” satin plate.
I definitely don’t need this but I want it so bad.
You just want to play Doom on it. We know.
You read my mind. That was my first question. Microcontroller? C? Ok yeah it can run doom for sure. But e ink? It’d look terrible…
I’m a little shocked it’s not a Watchy with a custom app on it
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Ten years ago on Kickstarter, Gabriel Anzziani unveiled plans to produce an oscilloscope watch.
After nearly forgetting about the project, early backers were surprised this month to receive a package containing the oscilloscope watch.
The watch mode has several useful features including formatting options for 24 vs 12 hour layouts and even an alarm.
The watch is powered by an 8-bit Xmega microcontroller with an internal PDI.
According to Anzziani, one goal of the project was to enable users to create their own apps for the watch.
Anzziani explains the expected battery life varies depending on whether or not the oscilloscope is in use.

My znaps must be right behind em
I wonder what the effective number of bits are on this thing.
