My idea is to create s custom display for a NTP/GPS clock where you never set the time, just the time zone. I am sick of clocks I can not trust to have accurate time except my phone and computer which use NTP. You will configure the clock using a web server hosted on the microcontroller on the clock.
So I posted this a while ago and I made some modifications to the display based on the suggestions. I also showed the design to a friend that suggested I do character display instead of a starburst or seven segment for the second row. Changing the second row makes it much more flexible to change. The idea for the second row is for showing the day, month, year, or possibly temp/humidity which ever the user prefers. The previous rendition had much skinner seven segments on the top row that people pointed out was out of scale, which I have since fixed. Do people have any companies for getting a custom LCD produced which they can recommend? What do you think of the design? Any other ideas? What do you think of the project?
