In this video a Raspberry-Pi based wordclock is presented.
The described version displays the current time with a precision of 1 minute, but - when exploiting the capabilites of the RPi - many further things can be done...
Presented features are
- Changing the display color using capacitive touch sensors
- Rendering strings in a ticker-like style
- Display of low-resolution png-files (considering the wordclock as a display with a resolution of 11x10 pixel)
Further features, implemented in the meantime
- Access to "weather.com" to display current temperature
- Display time of sunrise, sunset, current moon phase
- Support of wordclock with different resolution (other than 11x10 pixels, needs testing)
