Ep. 15: A Wearable Compass with Jelle Reith

The video features a discussion with Yellow Wheat about his innovative project, Compass, a wearable device that provides directional feedback through tactile and auditory signals. Yellow shares his journey into electronics, inspired by his father's model train set and his artistic mother. The Compass project was developed as part of an assignment to transform a phone app into a wearable. The device uses electric coils and magnets to create flapping motions, providing a unique sensory experience. Future plans include expanding the project and exploring new applications.
