About Hybrid 智能手錶

Hybrid係一款智能手錶,將傳統手錶嘅實體指針同中央鏤空Amoled顯示屏結合埋一齊。指針會自動調校時間,當有提示訊息出現嘅時候仲會自動避開閱讀區域。內置電池同時驅動指針同螢幕,即使螢幕關閉,儲存嘅電量都可以令齒輪組運作長達100日。懸浮觸控技術令用戶可以透過觸摸同滑動玻璃表面嚟喚醒同操控螢幕。錶殼前後兩面採用陶瓷物料製造,錶身用不鏽鋼打造,錶帶則以編織尼龍製成。

Unique Properties: Hybrid Smart Watch retains the physical hands of a traditional watch on a central perforated Amoled display,capable of automatic time-adjusting and avoidance of reading areas.The built-in battery drives the physical hands and the screen,and its pre-stored power can run the gearbox for 100 days even if the screen’s power is off.As a smart watch,it not only inherits the classical charm of a traditional watch,but also helps users to form a healthy and science-based lifestyle.
Dimensions & Packaging: size:265（length）*44.5(width)*13（thickness)mm
weight:68g
Tags: Smart watch,traditional watch,physical pointer,automatic time calibration,health management
Production Technology: The front and back of the watch are made of eco-friendly ceramic,and skin-friendly 316L stainless steel forms its body in a cold rolling process with strong corrosion resistance.The dial features an original perforated electronic screen with a special “coating”on the sapphire glass,which effectively prevents stains and fingerprints.The strap is made of fine woven nylon Velcro for a comfortable and convenient wearing, a easy cleaning,and a perfect match with different wrist sizes.
Design Challenge: The hardest task was to make a smart electronic screen with physical hands on it.We used central perforated technology to have the gearbox shaft pierce the screen,i.e. the hands walk on the screen. Features such as automatic time-adjusting, avoidance and longer battery life were also considered.
The structure, consisting of an amoled electronic screen, physical hands and a glass cover, is especially equipped with floating touching technology, allowing enough space for the physical hands to run.
Research: The Internet has plunged most people into sub-health,and the traditional watch industry needs to be upgraded.Hence we rethink what a watch can meet,,defining it as an identity and health companion instead of an ornament.This watch makes life smarter and healthier as simplified time-adjusting,longer standby,better health and quick access to medical care are relevant to people’s life,health and healthcare future.Changes in a watch itself make for the inheritance and growth of the industry.
Inspiration: Since the traditional mechanical watch lacks enough functions and the smartwatch is easy to run out of power,we are prompted to re-devise a more practical watch.With these two types of watch integrated,this Hybrid Smart Watch renders the traditional mechanical watch connected-it has added practical functions such as internet health management based on the traditional watchmaking techniques and the accurate timekeeping mechanical device to achieve multi-scenario application.
Project Duration: In 2019,this project kicked off in March in Guangzhou and ended in September in the same city,and was exhibited and launched onto the market at Global Sources Consumer Electronics in October.
Operation Flow: Floating touch technology allows users to wake up and interact with the screen by touching and swiping on the glass surface.With the built-in software, the physical hands can automatically adjust the time.When alerts come,the hands will avoid causing reading discomfort.Through scanning the built-in QR code,users can connect the watch to the smart health app on their mobile phones to monitor their health for all-day protection.
