Wow,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
What do you think about the picture above?
This is the hour, I took the picture from lifehacker.com.
whether this way of life that is full of sophisticated hackers. This is only
part of the cleverness of the people haker to make something amazing.
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 interested in tinkering
with an Arduino, this laser wall clock definitely fits the bill.
If you dig DIY clocks or you just think lasers are cool,
this is the kind of project that you might want to try, especially if you're
getting started with Arduino projects. You'll need an Arduino, of course, and
you'll also need a pair of laser pointers, a few servos and motors to make the
lasers move as time passes, and of course, the IKEA BLANDA salad bowl,
available for 5 bucks, which will serve as the housing for all of the gear.
The wiring diagram and some more shots of the clock are
available at Zouliv's blog, where he explains the process of assembling the
whole thing. It's not terribly detailed, so you'll have to fill in the gaps,
but if you're interested in building one yourself, it shouldn't be too
difficult once you get started, the Arduino can be made to keep its own time,
although Zouliv connected his to a computer over USB (you can see the cable) to
keep accurate time.
