Clock Uses Water Bottles as Pixels With Membrane Pumps and Servos Maker Strange Inventions has built a water-based digital clock in which 60 small bottles act as individual pixels, collectively forming numerals to display the time. The bottles, sourced at 10 cents each, brought the total project cost to approximately $580. Each bottle is filled or emptied with dyed water to switch its pixel state on or off, with the display controlled by a microcontroller… |

Guide & Review
Sandeep Patil, CTO at RedNerds
Model Name: FNIRSI-1014DAbstract :An oscilloscope that retails at INR 13K basically covers all of the hands-on subjects a 4-year engineering syllabus teaches in theory. The only issue is that none of this is practiced. We barely get past MCUs hands-on.This… |

This Clock Displays Time Using Air and Pneumatic RAM A unique experimental clock created by soiboi soft is gaining attention for its unusual way of telling time. While it may look like a fully air powered system, the design actually combines pneumatic logic with electronic control. Instead of relying only on circuits and chips, the clock uses air pressure to form its display, while electronics handle precise timing and control, making it a… |
