Sony Smart Watch – Open Smart Watch Getting Started?

Today is almost accidental, I stumbled upon that Sony is opening firmware development and creating a project under its hood:

http:// developer.sonymobile.com/services/open-smartwatch-project/

Which is great!

But it still comes with a lot of question marks:

>It would be great if there is an open source sample firmware that can be started.
>Some hardware components of the device are undocumented , Especially the very important Bluetooth chipset ST-Ericsson STLC2690. How to write Bluetooth software for undocumented chips?
>There are six other missing information, such as battery charge management, battery status control, display characteristics, touch screen characteristics, etc.

This project is very cool, I really want to do something, but the information It’s still a bit too shallow.

What I like to do is port my “Oswald” SmartWatch project to Sony Smartwatch:

http://labs.kernelconcepts.de/Projects/Oswald /

Oswald currently only runs on MetaWatch, for this I wrote all the necessary bits and fragments, and it is also a small Bluetooth stack. Considering the more information provided by Sony, I am also happy to use it For Smartwatch.

Thank you!

Cheers

I always Looking forward to opening up the possibility of running custom codes on smart watches.

>Once I get a description (or at least the code to find out…) how they map each peripheral’s gpio Pin I should be able to use all the basic codes that are now specified to work with the interface for a few days.
>I have written the code on https://code.google.com/p/btstack/ and made some modifications to it Make it work with STEricsson CG2900 and stm32f205, so we hope we can use BT without much time. If it’s just the Bluetooth part you are interested in the HCI level interface is almost standardized.> Agree, you may have noticed By the time I asked for a hardware schematic, we would not get one.
