Meet the M5 Stick: An IOT platform on your wrist

in this video we check out a small IoT development platform called the m5 stick.

5:29 to 5:32 was supposed to be cut...

[rorygallagher]

Still not sure what this or what it's capable of. More preparation and in depth exploration needed to do this device justice.

[levioptionallastname]

And I still have zero Idea what it is.

[jasonbailey]

I guess I need to not be doing other things while this plays (so I might have missed the explanation), but I still don't know what this things is. The explanation provided was that it was based on a particular board, but I have no clue what that board does either. Taking 15 seconds to explain the functionality of the device would have been useful. So, your title was basically click-bait since the question is never really answered. ;) Yeah...I'll stay subscribed and keep watching, just pointing out that your viewers are at many different points in their maker-hood journey.

[OrinSorinson]

That's not bad for 15$. I'd be tempted to take these and wall mount them and integrate them with my home assistant (especially with something as easy as ESPHome )

It would be nice if some of the jargon were briefly explained/defined. Even just saying what abbreviations like IMU mean would be helpful.

[grrarg]

So basically an Arduino style board that runs C, micro python, etc, with an accelerometer, and wifi on-board, and a generic interface at the end so you can plug in "modules" to develop your own wearable IoT devices.

So what is it? lol It's like a thingy that has some thingies with some temperature sensor and maybe you wear it like a watch. ok?

[roidroid]

There seems to be an amazing amount of people watching this channel who don't understand what a DEV KIT is.

[KevinOsborne]

Had one of these for a while, they are amazing and so simple to

[Peter_Enis]

You pay for the wristband and cables/extensions. The devboard is semi-free. It invites you to develop fun, mobile stuff. Your imagination decides what's it used for.

[x-x]

Simple, minimalist, Easy carry, look amazing !

[cepixc]

Seen this on tiktok. Still don't understand what is this for

[screaminscott]

I'll just add my comment to everyone else's - what is this again? I feel like he kind of expected everyone to automatically recognize what this was for, so he just showed off all the parts.

[papagal]

so he read the box content but has no idea what to do with it.

[levioptionallastname]

Should be called "How to make a six minute video and explain absolutely nothing"

[gatarsystem]

И сколько хватает батареи, чтобы таскать его на руке как часы?

[farvision]

Many (all?) of us don't know what this is. Is this an early April Fools joke?

[GoatZilla]

It's kind of like watching a radio DJ fill dead air time with ... filler.

[odmaodmadotodma]

Can anyone tell me if you can use this to turn off tvs
