DAB's Clocks is a collection of hand made, one of a kind devices that each display time in unconventional and interesting ways. These time pieces are both functionally and aesthetically pleasing. I design and build some of my clocks without any assistance. For others I've collaborated with Guy Marsden and relied upon him for all the engineering and fabrication. In these situations I'll typically build a mock up to confirm feasibility and essential design features. Through an iterative process with Guy I'll ultimately create a 3D representation that Guy will reference during the build.
Bubble Clock
The Bubble Wall Panel (20" x20", made of PVC and purchased at Amazon) has 26 bubbles behind which are placed LEDs. When the time is queried the hour (Blue) and minute RED) LEDs turn on simultaneously and then it's just a matter of counting the number of each. So at 12:55 there will be 12 Blue and 11 Red bubbles lit. Bubbles are lit in a pattern that appears to be random although blue and red bubbles will always be the same. Code could be used to create any kind of effect desired.
