Last year I got a cheap Pebble smartwatch just days before the company was sold to Fitbit

One of the reasons was to play with it building our custom apps, so we built an app to control our Energenie sockets from the watch, sending HTTP requests to a Raspberry PI with the official radio module from Energenie.

All you need, apart form the pebble is a Raspberry PI to send the radio signal from a REST API to a Energenie socket. Check how to do it on our previous post.

You can see it in action here.

We might try to build a game using the gyroscope in the future, do you have any other ideas?
