Haven't even watched the video and this raised a reg flag with me straight away.
Most smart watches get battery life measured in weeks.
Would be interesting to run the numbers on this one.
Granted though, the extremities of the body like the hands and arms are used by the body to radiate heat during high intensity workouts.
I suspect this will be a turkey if you don't exercise hard every day.
Seiko and Citizen made watches with a TEG in them, they were barely able to power a regular quartz movement. They want to run something with a Bluetooth radio built in...
I wear a stainless steel automatic watch, after a few minutes on the wrist it feels pretty much uniformly heated up.
All,
Not much I can say here off the bat that will convince you since you seem like hardcore skeptics. I can offer a visit to any of you that are interested in learning more about our TEG technology to drop by our lab. You can see a watch build for yourself and other demos we have setup.
Otherwise, I'm happy to answer questions if you're interested.
Thanks.
The human body loses about 80W through the skin and the surface area of the skin is about 2m2. This gives you 8mW/cm2 of heat flow per area.

The watch goes into low-power sleep mode when not being worn. According to Tham, once it's charged it could last in high-power mode for two years, and in a sleep state "for decades." Of course it sounds too good to be true, but the Matrix watch's Indiegogo campaign is live and kicking, and Matrix intends the watch to ship next summer for $160.
I do not go to gym but do people really wear watches in the gym? Id think there is possibilities to damage it plus all that sweat and smell. I would not want my watch stink.
Accurate Calorie Count
Your body turns the calories you consume into heat. The PowerWatch accurately measures the calories you burn using our advanced thermoelectric technology.
The Arrow certification was important to us to quiet the skeptics.
I'm obviously not going to change minds here and so I won't even try.
The Arrow certification was important to us to quiet the skeptics. They reviewed the entire circuit diagram. It was not just a bill of materials scan.
