I wanted my thesis to have a nice HTML version in addition to the mandatory-in-my-field latex/PDF version. Having a HTML version also means I can experiment with a bit of interactivity. I've done some of the diagrams in SVG using Inkscape which is a nice tool for this kind of thing. I wanted to add some interactivity as an easter egg to the SVGs in the HTML version.

A while ago I backed a crowdsupply project called [Sensor Watch](https://www.oddlyspecificobjects.com/products/sensorwatch/). It's a replacement logic board for those classic Casio watches that you probably don't know the name of but have certainly seen around. This post goes through the process of getting the board swapped out and programming custom firmware on it. I also went opted for the [temperature sensor addon board](https://www.sensorwatch.net/docs/sensorboards/).

In [another post](/2022/11/22/sensor_watch.html) I talked about the [Sensor Watch](https://www.oddlyspecificobjects.com/products/sensorwatch/) project which has this nifty JS simulation for testing the firmware. This saves you having to dissasemble the watch every time you want to test a change to the firmware so makes the develop/test loop much faster. Here I'll go through a toy example of how that works.
