We’ve seen a few H-bridge circuits around these parts before, and here’s another application. This time we have an Old Train Station Clock which has been refurbished after being picked up for cheap at the flea market. These are big analog clocks which used to be common at railway stations around the world. This build […]
One easy way to make a very accurate clock is with a WiFi-enabled microcontroller like an ESP32 and a display: set up NTP, and you’ll never be off by more than a minute. This water clock project by [Liebregts] is not like that — there are no electronics to speak of, and if the clock […]
Our hacker [glgorman] sent in their submission for the One Hertz Challenge: an analog software clock for Microsoft Windows. I guess we’d have to say that this particular project is a work-in-progress. There is no final clock, yet. But a number of yak’s have been shaved. For instance, we have code for computing geometric objects […]
It’s never a bad time to look at a clock, and one could certainly do worse than this delightful Paper Sunshine Clock by [anneosaur]. The sun-ray display is an interesting take on the analog clock, and its method of operation is not one we see every day, either. Reading the clock is straightforward: there are […]
In 2008, an art studio out of Stockholm released the ClockClock, a digital clock with an analog heart. The ClockClock used 24 individual analog clocks — hour and minute hands and all — to display time digitally. The world went crazy, Pinterest blew up, and everyone wanted a digital analog clock until the next interesting […]
