This build combines a Raspberry Pi with a rotary-encoder, an RGB LED and an OLED character display to create a time clock that logs my time on tasks directly to a Google Docs spreadsheet. Motivation Whenever I have to record time against projects, I find it really hard to diligently keep my time records up […]

I bought a Real Time Clock module (RTC) about 6 months ago and I’ve only just taken it out of its anti-static bag. With two potential projects in mind that may require an RTC, I opened the packet, wired it to my RaspberryPi and then….not a lot happened. So I had to take a closer

Binary clocks show the time in an unconventional format. They display the hours, minutes and sometimes even seconds as numbers represented in the binary numeral system. Binary clocks and binary watches have grown quite popular today. More and more people work in IT and become familiar with the binary numbers, the native language of our

The project is connected to GPIO 15 input pin 1 of my Raspberry Pi interface board. There is nothing special about this pin, its location is simply convenient with my layout.. Please be aware that this project will only work in the British Isles, because the transmitter is not very powerful. The antenna should be aligned with

If you want to build a good Real Time Clock for your Raspberry here’s the tutorial you were looking for! This is a revised and simplified version for Instructables made out of this article at my personal blog. Difference is mainly in the structure and my article is a bit more verbose. Why another “annoying”

This instructable shows how to use a ‘Simple but Strong Plastic Box’, (http://www.instructables.com/id/A-Simple-but-Strong-Plastic-Box/) from my previous Instructable, to make a Two Faced Clock which uses a Raspberry Pi to control two stepper motors. I’ll not explain how to make the box itself, but will show how to measure, mark and make the holes for the

For this to work you must obviously live in an area that can receive both signals. My circuit is based on two modules taken from two radio clocks bought at Lidl’s supermarket. Originally both were for the DCF clock but by substituting the original 77.5kHz crystal with a 60kHz crystal, one of the modules was

Hello guys In this instructable i’ll show an alarm clock project based on RaspberryPi and GrovePi+ Starter Kit. Its name is “IT”, that’s the shortening of “It’s Time”. Version instructabled is 1.3, youtube video shows 1.0 . It’s a standard alarm clock that can be configured at your pleasure. Once you have completed this project,

Introduction RaspberryPi, the popular Open Source Hardware Board operating out of different Linux based flavors like Debian, Fedora, Archlinux ARM and Android, does indeed support a Real Time Clock to be integrated in the form of a Hardware module to it. Here, RaspberryPi Foundation gives the user, the flexibility to implement and integrate a Real
