Making a clock with a common microcontroller like an Arduino isn’t very difficult. However, if you’ve tried it, you probably discovered that keeping track of wall time is difficult without some ...
We’re big fans of the impractical around here at Hackaday. Sure there’s a certain appeal to coming up with the most efficient method to accomplish your goal, the method that does exactly what it needs ...
We have seen quite a few different geeky clocks before on Geeky Gadgets, the latest one is this cool Arduino Weather Clock built by Sean Carney. Sean took an antique clock and removed the mechanism, ...
I like this. Following on from the creative use of LEDs with the Periodic Table, check out this smart shelving system, similarly driven by an Arduino and using LEDs, that serves as a clock. Not a ...
Binary Clock is a clock that displays the current time in binary or decimal using a LED display. It really does not serve much of a practical purpose, unless your goal is to display the time in a ...
Every maker needs a geeky wall clock and the geekiest way to get one is to build your own. With so many modular and open-source options, building your own decorative clock is far from the most ...
If you are considering purchasing a Nixie tube clock kit you may be interested in a new Arduino project published by Doug Domke to the Hackster.io website this week providing full instructions on how ...
When is a clock not a clock? When it's a big fat, programmable, five-character, 18-segment display, a bit like the Alpha Clock Five from Evil Mad Science. Its 2.3 inch 18-segment alphanumeric ...
Shadowplay strips the clock back to its basic elements, with an empty clock face bathed in light from the LEDs embedded in its plywood frame. There are no numbers, and no hands, at least until someone ...
