I had an idea for this project quite a while ago, and I finally got around to making it. It's an LED clock that has 12 RGB LEDs that make up the clock face. The hour, minute, and second hands are red green and blue respectively, and as the hands revolve around the face of the clock the colours mix.
The clock runs from one AA battery and uses a SWPS to boost the voltage to 5 volts to power the microcontroller and LEDs. The RTC used is a DS1307N with its own battery backup.
Here is a video where I show the clock: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-hxZRCponks
And a link to the project page I setup at my website: https://www.stellarcore.com/projects/led-desktop-clock/
Let me know what you guys think, and if you would be interested in building one. I'm thinking about making this into a kit that would be priced around $30 - $40.
