Cool Arduino Clock


Here is a pretty cool clock done using a platform similar to the Arduino, all of the software and code is open source and available on their site. A fully functional clock with all of the regular features of a normal alarm clock such as:

  • Cool glowing blue tube with 8 digits and alarm on/off dot
  • Adjustable brightness
  • Alarm with volume adjust
  • Precision watch crystal keeps time with under 20ppm (0.002%) error (<>
  • Clear plastic enclosure protects clock from you and you from clock
  • Battery backup will let the clock keep the time for up to 2 weeks without power
  • Selectable 12h or 24h display
  • Displays day and date
  • 10 minute snooze
Just something I thought was interesting. The plans are a bit more complex than anything we've looked at yet, still something I thought was interesting.
