A couple of weeks ago i noticed the hole in my monitor stand at work is almost exactly the same diameter as a ring of 24 neopixels that i had lying around.
Neopixel wall clock.
The neopixel chan serial in si is soldered to arduino pin 6 with the 330 ohm resistor in series.
Neopixel ntp clock using esp8266.
As i was using.
I am sharing the instructions for others who may want to do the same similar and save some time.
This project uses the ds1307 real time clock with an arduino to display the time as a series of colored arcs.
Hours are represented by red minutes by green seconds by blue.
This wall clock shows the time on two concentric led rings of 60 24 neopixel leds.
With the new neopixel 60 ring we have a perfect display for presenting the time with rgb leds.
I recently had an idea to build a clock using neopixel ring and the popular esp8266 module.
It is controlled by an esp32 which synchronizes the time online with an ntp server.
A simple clock using the neopixel 60 ring.
Wol clock esp8266 12e 60 led ws2812b analogue digital clock.
And the tsop1838 is under this.

This instructable will guide you through the process of connecting the following parts to create an interesting and accurate analogue digital clock which will automatically set the time from the internet parts needed esp8266 12e module can be bou.
Create your own colorful ring of time using a neopixel 60 ring an arduino or compatible and a real time clock module.
The hardest part was getting the code right.
The arcs overlap and the colors mix.
It ll even keep the time when unplugged.
The inner ring shows the hours the outer ring shows minutes and seconds.
The sda and scl to a4 and a5 in the arduino.
The back of the monitor faces several coworkers so i decided to put the ring and another s.
Minutes and seconds are each represented by a single green or blue led respectively.
