Making your own! We'll look at a few wearable development kit options, many are so easy they don't require any specialized knowledge to make the next big thing!</p> <p>We have the pleasure of digging into the WearDuino development kit with its creator Mark Leavitt. WearDuino is a local creation by <a href="http://pdxwhl.org">pdxwhl.org</a>, and is an open platform for innovation in wearable health technology. WearDuino highlights:</p> <ul> <li>Open hardware, firmware, software and physical design</li> <li>Simple: coin-cell battery, Bluetooth low energy wireless</li> <li>Modular: experiment freely with sensor innovations</li> <li>Wearable in multiple body locations with different attachments</li> <li>Smaller, lighter, thinner and 5x less expensive than Apple Watch</li> </ul> <p>We're also thrilled to host Camille Dodson who will show off <a href="http://lilypadarduino.org/">LilyPad</a>, another Arduino based development kit. It's not as focused on healthcare as WearDuino, but is a great way for Makers to easily get their feet wet building and sharing cool wearable projects.</p> <p>We'll look at other Wearable dev kits as well, and if you have any, feel free to bring them along! We love show and tell.</p> </div> <h3>Links</h3> <ul> <li><a class="url u-url" href="http://www.meetup.com/pdxwear/events/223447633/">Website</a></li> </ul> </div>
