A new Arduino-powered voice-activated clock has been created by Instructables user GeraldF6, who has kindly published step-by-step instructions enabling you to build your very own. This innovative ...
Maker Michael Klements has built a unique electromechanical clock using a little Arduino hardware, code, and 28 servos, which tilt panels to reveal the correct time in digital format. As the time ...
The most popular RTC for the Arduino is the DS1307. However, it does have some drawbacks, the most notable of which is that its operating voltage is 5v, which means it cannot be used with 3.3v ...
In this project, PCF85063ATL CMOS Real-time Clock (RTC) is used as the time generator. This provides year, month, day, weekday, hours, minutes, and seconds based on a 32.768 kHz quartz crystal. A ...
In the movie 2001: A Space Odyssey, HAL 9000 — the neurotic computer — had a birthday in 1992 (for some reason, in the book it is 1997). In the late 1960s, that date sounded impossibly far away, but ...
When prototyping a project using an Arduino, there are a few things that are pretty much required equipment. A computer for generating sketches is typically one of those things, but [Adam] over at ...
Alarm clocks are cheap and abundant, but they’re pretty boring. If you want to make your own, Instructables user Paranoid Legend shows you how to build one with an Arduino. The alarm clock is made ...
Just when you thought you’ve seen every strange variation of clock there is to see, we find one based on an Arduino that tracks the phases of the moon. The “Lunar Phase Clock” is a project that popped ...
It's definitely not the most efficient way to get a clock on your wall, or the cheapest, but if you're looking for a clock that turns heads, looks cool, and is a great starter project if you're ...
Check out this alternative Ternary timepiece courtesy of an Arduino. If you remember the Made By Monkeys blog you'll know I like strange clocks and this one is no exception. Can you figure the system ...
