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 ...

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 ...

You’ve doubtless seen those ubiquitous clock modules, especially when setting clocks for daylight savings time. You know the ones: a single AA battery, a wheel to set the time, and two or three hands ...

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 ...

The dot matrix clock was built without the use of a regular Arduino board but uses the ATmega168 with Arduino bootloader and assembled on a breadboard. An RTC clock compensated by temperature is used ...

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 ...

I like this. Following on from the creative use of LEDs with the Periodic Table, check out this smart shelving system, similarly driven by an Arduino and using LEDs, that serves as a clock. Not a ...

Your smartphone makes a great smart alarm clock, but not everyone wants their phone next to their bed all the time. Instead, Make shows you how to build an internet-connected alarm clock using an ...
