Reading 'Digital Crown' I immediately thought of Project Soli [0] (a radar-based that can read finger gestures without contact), but I assume it's just a plain old rotary encoder and push button.

OT: Does anyone know if Project Soli is ready for market? Is the alpha kit even available yet? I haven't heard anything about it lately.

*>>launches 2/9

2nd September. That's a fair way off yet.
