Introduction
------------
Wasp-os is a firmware for smart watches that are based on the nRF52
family of microcontrollers, including hacker friendly watches such
as the Pine64 PineTime. Wasp-os includes a digital clock, a stopwatch,
a step counter and a heart rate monitor. All of these, together with
access to the MicroPython REPL for interactive tweaking, development
Wasp-os is a firmware for smart watches that are based on the nRF52 family of
microcontrollers, and especially for hacker friendly watches such as the Pine64
PineTime. Wasp-os features full heart rate monitoring and step counting support
together with multiple clock faces, a stopwatch, an alarm clock, a countdown
timer, a caclulator and lots of other games and utilities. All of this, and
still with access to the MicroPython REPL for interactive tweaking, development
and testing.
Wasp-os includes a robust bootloader based on the Adafruit NRF52
Bootloader. It has been extended to make it robust for development on
form-factor devices without a reset button, power switch, SWD debugger
or UART. This allows us to confidently develop on sealed devices relying
on Bluetooth Low Energy for over-the-air updates.
