Electronics designer Marcin Saj with over 15 years expertise within the electronics business has taken to Kickstarter this month to launch his new versatile nixie clock. Based on the Arduino platform and geared up with Arduino IoT Cloud know-how, voice management and assist for Amazon Alexa the nixie clock additionally options interchangeable nixie tube sockets supporting dozens of various nixie tubes permitting you to customise your clock to your precise liking.

ONE Nixie tube clock options and specs

• You don’t want to vary this system code in case you are altering nixie tubes or tube sockets, even when they’re multi-segment tubes similar to B7971, B8971. The clock has a auto-detection characteristic and selects the suitable sub-programs to manage detected tubes by itself.
• The coronary heart of the clock is Arduino Nano / Every / 33 IoT
• 26 interchangeable nixie tube sockets accessible
• Option to hook up with the Arduino IoT Cloud
• Control possibility from a smartphone app (iOS and Android) or an internet browser
• Several devoted tutorials accessible on the right way to be taught and use Arduino IoT Cloud with ONE Nixie Clock
• 27 Arduino instance program codes – able to add
• Voice management possibility by way of Alexa assistant
• Time synchronization possibility by way of WiFi
• Easy to assemble
• All SMD (surface-mount) parts are alredy soldered, solely THT “thru-hole” parts required soldering
• Support supplied throughout meeting and start-up of the clock
• Clock has rgb led backlight
• Accurate real-time clock for timekeeping
• The clock requires an exterior normal 12V 1.5A energy provide (energy provide just isn’t included)

Backer early bird pledges at the moment are accessible for the novel venture from roughly $90 or £67 (relying on present trade charges).

“With 26 interchangeable nixie tube sockets, this unique device allows you to connect most existing nixie tubes. The clock is based on the Arduino Nano, you can connect it to the Arduino IoT Cloud, you can control the clock from the smartphone app and even voice control via the Alexa assistant. All features are optional and fully customizable. The clock displays the time digit by digit – first the hours then the minutes – then the whole cycle is repeated. Using fade in/out effect and different tube backlight colors for hours and different for minutes, time reading is clear and simple.”

If the ONE crowd funding marketing campaign efficiently raises its required pledge purpose and the venture progresses easily, worldwide delivery is predicted to happen someday round March 2022. To be taught extra in regards to the ONE IoT voice managed Nixie clock venture play the promotional video beneath.

“The clock consists of several interconnected modules. Inside the main module (shield) is a RTC module for accurate timekeeping, a nixie tube power supply module, and an Arduino Nano / Every / 33 IoT board. A nixie socket is connected to the main module, a dedicated nixie tube is connected to the socket. The clock is compatible with 26 nixie sockets that support over a hundred different tubes. The time is displayed in rotation, starting with hours then minutes. For easier reading of the time the seconds have been disabled. You can also set different color of backlight for hours and different for minutes.”
