Carbon’s Domino Clock Is A Work Of Art


Carbon’s Domino Clock is the best looking clock I’ve seen in a long long time. It’s like looking at time on rolling dice. Except that the dice are hanging on your wall.

While it may look like a pure design marvel, it has surprisingly smart technology working behind it. The clock is comprised of 6 dominos that work together and communicate wirelessly to manage time. The dots are made to flip using a specially designed electromagnetic coil motor which maintains the silence to conform to the peaceful and calm look of the clock. Each domino consumes power only when transitions happen. You can visit the Carbon Design website for the engineering details.

See the video ahead to see how awesome can some simple white dots look.
