Smart Watch
do not mix the water with the watch. you have been warned.
Prefer WearOS watches like LG W100. Found 3D printable case on Shapeways but not downloadable. Shapeways provides service for printing. Shapeways builds ShapeJS which can construct 3D models with code.
Use Pixle2Mesh++ to recover 3D meshes from multiple images (dumped at ~/Desktop/works/shapeways_reconstruct_from_image_lg_w100
)of different viewpoints. Determine the size of the mesh after measurement or learning specs.
if you want iwatch instead, remember to buy some apple gift cards for buying watchos apps. remember to ask for battery life since older watches tend to die halfway in a day. buy iphone 6s and newer models with ios 14 and newer os to manage and install apps on iwatch. no need for 3d modeling since plenty tough-tested cases around.
