So, given an updated timeline, and the possibility of a smart watch, what features/ apps would you add to it. We all know the usual's would be added like a compass, temp, barometric, altimeter, heart rate, GPS, but what extras would you add. I am going with a small button size battery NDB battery and solar back up. also a track me/ find me feature. I am going on the theory that Bruce brought something back with him or someone found some data and designed it from that on of course a more modern timeline.

Garmin already markets a watch with more than is really needed. The tactix 7 Pro Ballistic Edition weighs only 89g. Beyond the ‘normal’ smart watch features, it supports solar charging, GPS, GLONASS and Galileo.
Too many other features to list but take a look at https://www.garmin.com/en-US/p/802901#overview, if you’re interested. Of course, a ton of the features will likely be non-functional at wake up. For MP, I’d probably want to add a dosimeter. |

I am going to support this Garmin as the likely contender, running MP Watch OS. That way they can program it using all the sensors to give whatever mission data they want/need. Since it has accelerometers but in, can be a wrist mounted Autonav. I do agree that a dosimeter would be nice. Any extra exposure data for the medical staff to analyze is good. That is why I have one as a feature of my MP ID cards.

dGPS requires at least one GPS satellite and at least one other well-known transmitter. The latter could be another satellite or a ground station that has been precisely surveyed. For best results you want at least 3 references.
