I built an invention inspired by Dr. Andrew Huberman. It is an electronics gadget to track sunlight exposure while worn on the face. The gadget is like a step counter but for visible light. The goal of this invention is to let someone know when they have achieved 100K lux for the day. The gadget uses a NRF52 Microcontroller and VEML7700 ambient light sensor. The custom PCB was ordered using JLPCB. The glasses were 3D printed using PLA material. This was a cool gadget to build as it involved my interests in electronics, health and the Huberman Lab podcast.
