Field notes
Pantekton says it does not manufacture, stock, or ship hardware: it writes the app and publishes case files, while workshops source the named component, print and assemble the case, then sell in their own markets. Pingente is described as using Bluetooth to send information to an e-ink display and running for weeks on a coin cell. The Android app is marked “in testing,” and Pantekton says it is still gathering its first workshops.
