Pebble launched a smartwatch in the 2010s, received VC funding, grew to hundreds of employees and then sold to Fitbit in 2016. Bye-bye Pebble. Now, it's back, self-funded with a staff of five, and under the control of its original founder, Eric Migicovsky. @ieeespectrum talked to him about the the three new Pebble wearables, e-paper, open-sourcing, AI and more. “I just love the idea of a fun device that doesn’t take itself too seriously. I love looking forward to gadgets. So, we’re just going to build gadgets that we love,” says Migicovsky.
