Projector Clocks

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Display Time on the Wall

— March 28, 2008 — Unique
This is a projection clock that displays the time to a wall and is sound-sensitive so that it can be turned on and off by clapping like that clapper commercial of many years ago. The clock's measurements are 34.5cm x 29cm x 27cm and the price is $125.

Implications - The mass adoption of mobile phones and their embedded digital clocks has forced analog clock designers to rethink their product and design strategy. By infusing elements of modern technology into a classic aesthetic, such as these sound-sensitive clocks that project the time onto a wall, these designers can appeal to a new market of tech-savvy consumers who desire a contemporary wall clock.
