E-ink watch tracker idea

1

Take one RAK11300 RP2040 SX1262 Module for LoRaWAN | Raspberry Pi RP2040 MCU – RAKwireless Store

Drop it into GitHub - sqfmi/Watchy: Watchy - An Open Source E-Ink Smartwatch to replace the ESP32

Add a Compact GPS Module,ultra Low Consumption | TOP-electronics and you have a really useful child tracker, they can wear it as a normal watch, there’s no internet stuff on it, it’s just a watch that reports its location over LoRa

Kicking this idea around here might try for a Wisblock/ Watchy mashup

So it looks like we might get watch hardware based on the RAK4631. The watch should also have on-board GPS & an e-ink screen.

So I guess I need to start adapting RAK WisBlock Screens | Meshtastic for the 1.54" 200x200 screen

Starting from here

Here is the schematic for the watch. Does anyone spot any issues?
