Abstract
Disclosed is a device for measuring and indicating time with light. The device includes an elongated housing member with at least one chamber having a defined volume for lighting elements embedded therein. Each chamber is configured to represent a different unit of time such that a first chamber represents a first unit of time and the next adjacent chamber represents a next or a previous unit of time. The lighting elements illuminate each chamber based at least partially on the unit of time such that the rate in which each chamber illuminate can differ.
Claims20
A clock device, comprising:
- at least one chamber representing a unit of time;
- and
- one or more lighting assemblies within the at least one chamber, wherein the one or more lighting assemblies is configured to illuminate the at least one chamber based at least partially on the unit of time.
A clock device, comprising:
- a first chamber representing a first unit of time, the first chamber comprising a first light assembly configured to illuminate the first chamber based at least partially on the first unit of time;
- and
- a second chamber representing a second unit of time, the second chamber comprising a second light assembly configured to illuminate the second chamber based at least partially on the second unit of time, wherein the first unit of time and the second unit of time are consecutive units of time.
A clock device, comprising:
- a housing member comprising one or more chambers, each of the one or more chambers representing a unit of time and adjacent to each other;
- one or more lighting assemblies extending through the one or more chambers, wherein the one or more lighting assemblies is configured to illuminate each of the one or more chambers based at least on the unit of time corresponding to the one or more chambers.
