MAKE subscriber Dan Wagoner points out this well-executed remake of Biegert & Funk’s Qlock2 – a clock that displays the time in conversational sentence format. Flickr member Ruud Burger gives a quick rundown of his project –
Remake of the QlockTwo by Biegert & Funk.
Using an Arduino Mega Clone + DCF77 module to get the time.
No buttons needed, just plugin and wait a minute or 2 and it will set the time for you.This is my first project using an Arduino, or any electronics for that matter.
Code can be found at: sht.tl/GB, I never planned of releasing it, so don’t expect good code-comments etc.
EPS of the vinyl sticker can be found at: sht.tl/p0
Definitely a nice addition to any modern home decor – I’m guessing an English-language remake can’t be far behind. Have a closer look at the QlockTwo Remake on Flickr
