  • This clock tells time on a photochromic display

    This clock tells time on a photochromic display

    Reading Time: 2 minutesThis clock tells time on a photochromic display Arduino Team — July 16th, 2019 With many LED projects—like clocks—you’ll want to use a diffuser to keep light somewhat even over a wide area. Diffusers, as their name implies, diffuse light, but what if one was to instead use it as the light source…

  • A giant tide clock like no otter!

    A giant tide clock like no otter!

    Reading Time: < 1 minuteA giant tide clock like no otter! Arduino Team — July 12th, 2019 As a gift for friends that operate tours of Prince William Sound in Alaska, maker ‘rabbitcreek’ decided to create a humongous (4’ diameter) tide clock, controlled by dual Arduino Nanos.  One Nano operates the adorable—though very large—otter on…

  • A fun Fibonacci clock for math fans

    A fun Fibonacci clock for math fans

    Reading Time: 2 minutesA fun Fibonacci clock for math fans Arduino Team — July 11th, 2019 In the early 1200s, Fibonacci introduced a series of numbers that now bear his name, starting with 0, then 1, and continuing on as the sum of the two preceding numbers. This gives values of 0, 1, 1, 2,…

  • Intuitive Arduino clock has seven alarms and three LED displays

    Intuitive Arduino clock has seven alarms and three LED displays

    Reading Time: 2 minutesIntuitive Arduino clock has seven alarms and three LED displays Arduino Team — June 19th, 2019 Alarm clocks of old—and certainly many of those today—require several button pushes to set things up properly. Maker Michael Wessel, however, decided to implement his own take on a more intuitive clock, creating a device that…

    Wake up to this unique VFD alarm clock!

    Reading Time: < 1 minuteWake up to this unique VFD alarm clock! Arduino Team — June 11th, 2019 If you’re a fan of novel timepieces, then you’ll want to check out Christine Thompson’s VFD Alarm Clock. The device features a USSR-manufactured IV-27V 7-segment tube, capable of displaying 13 numbers or letters via a 24V supply,…

  • Geometric Nixie tube clock and environmental display

    Geometric Nixie tube clock and environmental display

    Reading Time: 2 minutesGeometric Nixie tube clock and environmental display Arduino Team — May 21st, 2019 Creators keep coming up with new clock designs, and while you might think that every new possibility has been exhausted, Christine Thompson has proved this assumption wrong once again with her “VFD Trilateral Clock.“ This Arduino Uno-powered device employs…

  • Build a fully functional binary clock with your Uno

    Build a fully functional binary clock with your Uno

    Reading Time: 2 minutesBuild a fully functional binary clock with your Uno Arduino Team — May 3rd, 2019 If you want to show everyone your computer prowess—or perhaps get a little practice—binary clocks are a great way to do so. These clocks express time in 1s and 0s instead of 0 through 9, and while…
