Against the backdrop of the historic Orion spacecraft flight to the Moon, CircuitMess has introduced a unique gadget — the Artemis Watch 2.0. These watches are not only dedicated to the Artemis II mission, but also allow users to become full-fledged developers of space technologies.

Unlike conventional smartwatches, the Artemis Watch 2.0 features a fully open architecture. This means that the owner can rewrite the device’s code, add new functions, or completely redesign the interface.

Inside its compact frame is a powerful dual-core ESP32 processor widely used in professional robotics. The gadget is equipped with a range of advanced sensors:

• An accelerometer and gyroscope for motion tracking;

• An electronic compass and a temperature sensor;

• A color LCD display and a rechargeable battery with USB-C charging.

The device easily synchronizes with iOS and Android smartphones via Bluetooth, allowing users to receive notifications and manage data in real time.

The main value of the watch lies in its educational potential. Users can customize the gadget in three ways: from a simple visual editor (for beginners) to professional development environments such as Python and Arduino. You can start by creating your own watch face and progress to writing complex algorithms for navigation or fitness tracking.

The base version of the gadget costs $129. For collectors, an extended set with additional straps is available for $149. The most comprehensive package, priced at $399, includes not only the watch but also a construction kit for assembling a detailed model of the Perseverance Mars rover.

Artemis Watch 2.0 is more than just an accessory. It is an educational tool that makes advanced technologies accessible and understandable to everyone.
