Kvart lamp to single-digit clock


Materials: Kvart Lamp

Description:
I converted the Kvart desk lamp into a single-digit clock using the Arduino microcontroller system and some electronics. This involved removing the AC wiring and light bulb socket, and replacing this with a 7-segment LED display module at the top of the lamp's neck, and replacing the base weight with the electronics.

See more of the digit clock.
