Word Clock (not World Clock)
"It is ten to eight" Made with a Diavolino (from Evil Mad Scientists Laboratories ) and a LolShield (from Jimmie Rodgers ), a piece of paper with carefully crafted mirrored printing, and a recycled solar garden lamp enclosure. A good way to learn how to tell time in French... The Diavolino has its own crystal, which makes it one of the few barebones Arduinos that you can actually make a relatively accurate clock out of. It's also one of the cheapest around. Thank you Wendell! The LolShield uses " charlieplexing " to drive 126 LEDs with only 12 pins... Setting the clock still requires a serial port.
