The Pebble watch is part of a series of emerging (2013-present) digital computer wearable technologies. The Pebble watch was an attempt to get consumers to interact with their cellular phones in new ways. Initially developed by Eric Migicovsky, of Vancouver, while attending the University of Waterloo, further product development was moved to the Y Combinator (technology incubator) in Silicon Valley. The Pebble watch was designed as an open source multi-platform alternative to compete with Apple watch. The first generation was manufactured in a limited run in the USA and later moved to China where the Foxlink group took over the manufacture. The second generation of the Pebble watch (Pebble Time and Pebble Steel) was launched as a Kickstarter campaign on February 24, 2015 with the watch as the primary incentive for the campaign. The second generation watch was designed to respond to some of the aesthetic concerns raised about the Pebble SDK (the latter resembling a 1980s Casio or Timex digital watch) as well as increase the battery life to exceed that of the Apple Watch. Within 16 minutes of the campaign launch, Pebble had reached its primary funding goal of $500,000 USD and at the 49 minute mark reached $1,000,000 USD making it the fastest Kickstarter project to reach that funding level. By the end of the campaign on March 27, 2015, the second generation Pebble watch received $20,332,986 USD in funding from 78,471 individual backers. Building on the previous campaign, Pebble launched a 3rd generation watch which divorced itself from the mobile telephone by creating “a tiny wearable computer with Android 5.0” with its own 3G modem, GPS, and Spotify integration backed by an open development community. The campaign raised $12,800,000 USD and was slated to ship to backers in September 2016. Despite this huge success for the second generation watch, Pebble – like many technology start-ups, became a victim of its own success. Production delays and poor quality parts resulted in the bulk of the technology being sold to Fitbit and Pebble entering receivership in December 2016. This resulted in the 3rd generation watch not being produced and the money returned to backers through Kickstarter. Fitbit (makers of the Fitbit biometric monitor) purchased the remaining intellectual assets, brand. La montre Pebble fait partie d'une série de technologies portables numériques émergentes (depuis 2013). La montre Pebble était une tentative d'avoir les consommateurs interagir avec leurs téléphones intelligents de nouvelles façons. Initiallement développée par Eric Migicovsky de Vancouver, pendant qu'il allait à l'Université de Waterloo, la poursuite du développement de produits a été transférée au Y Combinator (incubateur technologique) dans la Silicon Valley. La montre pebble était fabriquée comme une option alternative pour faire concurrence avec la montre Apple. La première génération était fabriquée en petite quantité aux États-Unis avant d'être fabriqué en Chine lorsque le groupe Foxlink a pris charge de la production. La deuxième génération de la montre Pebble (Pebble Time et Pebble Steel) a été lancé comme campagne de démarrage le 24 février 2015, avec la montre comme incitation principale pour la campagne. La deuxième génération était fabriquée pour répondre aux inquiétudes esthétiques du Pebble SDK (qui ressemblait au Casio des années 1980 ou la montre numérique Timex) et ainsi améliorer la longévité de la batterie pour surpasser celle de la montre d'Apple. Après les 16 premières minutes de la campagne, Pebble avait atteint son but primaire de financement de $500,000 US et après 49 minutes Pebble a atteint $1 000 000 US. Ceci était la campagne de démarrage la plus rapide a atteindre son but de financement.
Function
A cable used to charge a smart watch. Un câble utilisé pour recharger une montre intelligente.
Technical
The Pebble watch is as Bluetooth enabled accessory for a smart phone. When not tethered, it has limited functionality. While it can be used as a personal micro-computer it is not able to send or receive messages without an accompanying smartphone. Unique to the Pebble in the smart watch market was that it was built on an open source community development platform which allowed for and encouraged user generated content and alteration. La montre Pebble est un accessoire activer par Bluetooth pour les téléphones intelligents. Lorsque pas attaché, la fonction de la montre est limitée. Malgré que la montre peut être utilisée comme micro-ordinateur personnel, la montre n'est pas capable d'envoyer ou de recevoir des messages sans l'accompagnement de téléphone intelligent. Unique au Pebble sur le marché des montres intelligentes, il était construit sur une plate-forme de développement communautaire qui permettait et encourageaient le contenu et la modification générés par les utilisateurs.
