The Tim-E iPhone Alarm Clock Wakes Up Difficult Sleepers

— May 17, 2013 — Tech
These iPhone alarm clocks are absolutely amazing. From the light sleeper to the impossible to wake, the tim-E iPhone alarm clocks have features to cater to anyone's needs when it comes to being alerted to waking up in the morning.

While the alarm is going off, he dances around and bobs his head. The device is brought to life when the screen of your iPhone becomes the face of the robot, there are countless ways that it can be programmed and you can be woken up. These iPhone alarm clocks even have brainteasers to ensure that you’re awake in the morning.

Be sure to check out the project on Kickstarter to help this incredible product hit the marketplace.
