Unconventional Switch: Clock

 


    Hello, This unconventional switch was made by Cameron Daniel and Andrew Swanstrom. This switch uses a clock to turn on an LED to serve as a more obvious visual indicator to let the user know what time it is without having to use a loud alarm. More specifically, this switch uses a clock hand with copper tape to complete a circuit by touching another piece of copper tape stationed on the edge of the clock to correlate to a certain time. In our switch when the minute hand strikes twelve the circuit is complete and the LED comes on. I think this switch could be viable in a real world setting as it's relatively simple and can help people who either can't hear an alarm or don't like the loud noise.
