There are a few off the shelf options that make it easier. One option is the official Arduino WiFi shield. This full-featured shield uses its integrated microcontroller to handle the WiFi protocol, security, and the TCP/IP stack for you. From “plug it in and go” perspective, this is an awesome option for Arduino-based projects. Plenty of example code supports the nicely designed hardware. The main downside to some people is the price.

Overall the board is based on the ATmega32u4 with a DS3231 RTC. The LCD module is intended to be driven by one of Adafruit’s Serial backpacks. There is an area of LED indicators (something I learned from a previous project) and some extra VCC/GND pins sprinkled about.

In the past, it was very common for this material to be used as interconnects between circuit boards in production products. The flexibility makes it simple to use and the ability to attach components directly saves space. These are just prototypes, but Seeedstudio is looking for ideas to help move into higher volume production. Who is going to make the first Arduino watch?
