LED POV hard drive clock. HDD Clock. With LCD Touchscreen Controller Jason Amsel Konstantin Klitenik Introduction The clock is one of the oldest inventions in human history and has been used for centuries as in instrument for measuring time. There are many ways to implement this ancient technology by simple and practical methods. However, simplicity and practicality were not among the goals of this project.
