Knock Clock is a fun little 48-hour project by Gijs Huisman, Giorgio Uboldi, Michael-Owen Liston. I really like the clever photosensor “set alarm” switch. Nicely done!
Try Adafruit's new iPhone & iPad app for makers! Circuit Playground!"Incredibly handy for anyone working in electronics. Perfect for engineers and non-engineers alike."
I’d go nuts with a resolution of only 15 minutes! Now if I knew land line Morse code I can see how you could ‘sound’ out the time with more resolution. But I only know the international radio telegraph code (which is NOT Morse!). True Morse uses the period BETWEEN clicks as the characters!

Nice idea, but room for improvement. I think if I had a go at it I’d use a solenoid rather than a noisy motor, that whirring is really annoying…

Great idea. Love the look, it’s clearly very well made.
Please get rid of the motor noise.
Solenoid or a stepper motor would seem the way to go.
When can I buy one ?
