It's often said that engineers don't have a good sense of fashion, but David Ng, the mechanical engineer and founder of Cnaptic, is clearly an exception. While his company focuses on developing STEM-based solutions using cutting-edge technologies, David has also ventured into the world of fashion with a unique product: a high-tech smartwatch. This timepiece blends engineering innovation with style, featuring a seven-segment LED display that stands out from traditional watches. Many of its components are 3D printed, giving it a modern and customizable look.
The first version of the watch was built using 3D printing technology for the case, frequency band, and wristband. It was powered by a USB PowerBank and included a real-time clock module along with an Arduino board to handle the electronics. But David didn’t stop there. Inspired by his wife’s suggestion, he added an alcohol sensor in the second version. The idea is that users can check their blood alcohol level simply by breathing into the device. If the reading exceeds the legal limit, the watch will sound an alarm, reminding the user to avoid driving and opt for a taxi or ride-sharing service instead.
Despite its futuristic design, some people find the watch a bit bulky, as it takes up most of the forearm. However, David sees this as a positive feature, emphasizing that the 3D-printed structure gives it a distinctive and eye-catching appearance. He says it always draws attention and feels great to wear. For him, it’s not just a watch—it’s a statement, a fusion of engineering and fashion that challenges conventional design norms.
