Abstract
In the last few years, new interactive wristwatches are available on the market. Despite their impressive hardware capacities, the interaction on such devices remains rather limited. We propose a cheap and low power consuming way to enhance interaction on a wristwatch but adding position sensors on the watchband. We then present a MP3 player application as a proof of concept for our prototype.
