Water clocks‚ along with sundials‚ are likely to be the oldest time-measuring instruments‚ with the only exceptions being the vertical gnomon and the day-counting tally stick.[1] Where and when they were first invented is not known‚ and given their great antiquity it may never be. The bowl-shaped outflow is the simplest form of a water clock and is known to have existed in Babylon and in Egypt around the 16th century BC. Other regions of the world‚ including India and China‚ also have early evidence

A ‘clock’ is an instrument used to specify‚ record‚ and manage time. The word ‘clock’ comes from the French word “cloche” meaning bell‚ came into use when timekeepers were kept in bell towers in the Middle Ages. Historians do not who or when mankind “invented” a time-keeping device or a “clock”. Probably thousands of years ago when someone stuck a stick in the ground and saw a shadow of the sun move across the ground‚ known as the sundial. (Cummings‚ 1997-2012). After the Samarian culture

1.0 Introduction According to (Baillie et al.‚ p. 307; Palmer‚ p. 19) “A clock is an instrument used to indicate‚ keep‚ and co-ordinate time. The word clock is derived ultimately (via Dutch‚ Northern French‚ and Medieval Latin) from the Celtic words clagan and clocca meaning "bell". A silent instrument lacking such a mechanism has traditionally been known as a timepiece.” Design and accuracy of clocks have evolved along with progression of technology and industry and even though their main

‚‚4(y STRATEGY CLOCK Whereas Michael Porter’s generic approach to competitive advantage gives substantial prominence to low cost‚ Cliff Bowman’s’ Strategy Clock’ looks at generic competitive advantage from a purely market-based perspective (MBV). He argues that competitive advantage is of no value unless it is of value to the customer and that a customer will always have a preference for such products or services over those of competitors. This may seem obvious but managers do sometimes fail to

"Propeller Clock" Mechanically Scanned LED Clock Seven light emitting diodes spin‚ giving the illusion of numbers in the air An Overview: Top View Side View How this clock works: A motor spins the "propeller"‚ and a small microprocessor keeps track of time and changes the pattern on seven LEDs with exact timing to simulate a 7 by 30 array of LEDs. It is an illusion‚ but it works nicely. To build this clock‚ few things are needed‚ including: 1. Skill with motors and mechanical

The History of Clocks | |The history of clocks is very long‚ and there have been many different types of clocks over the centuries. Not all historians agree on the history of the clock. The word clock was first used in the 14th century (about 700 years ago). It comes from the word for bell in Latin ("clocca"). Using the Sun The first way that people could tell the time was by looking at the sun as it crossed the sky. When the sun was directly overhead in the sky‚ it was the middle of the day‚ or

PROPELLER CLOCK OBJECTIVE :- In this project‚ our aim is to use PIC or 8051 microcontroller to control a row of LEDs to function it as a clock. ABSTRACT :- The Propeller Clock is an electronic device which has a series of LEDs on board that rotate with the help of a motor to give an illusion of a watching a clock ( Digital or Analogue ). This requires a DC motor which rotates the PCB connected to it with sufficient speed so as to create the illusion. The LEDs are connected to a microcontroller
