Projection LCD Clock

This clock hack is a neat idea. Passing light through the LCD allows the clock image to be projected on a wall. To make the project a bit cooler it activates with a remote control. The inspiration was the watch projection clock project.

” This is a clock that projects the time onto the wall of a darkened room whenever any IR remote control (like a TV remote) is pointed at it and any button is pressed. It uses no lenses. The time is displayed for as long as any button is pressed.”

” The LCD clock is opened in order to tamper with the polarizer – turning it 90 degrees results in a reverse image display, and simply reversing the polarizer should give the same effect. (This is done also in the aforementioned projection clock project). I had to cut the polarizer film into a few squares since it wouldn’t fit in the new orientation, and I also blocked out some pieces I didn’t want passing any light with some aluminum tape.”
