Article Abstract:
The clock form Realnerds consists of six columns of LEDs, one column for each digit marking the hours, minutes, and seconds, in blue or red. As the seconds tick off, the resulting pattern is enigmatic to anyone not familiar with the code, which is binary-coded decimal, and its menu offers all kinds of options, including a scrolling display of temperature from a built-in thermometer and latitude/longitude coordinates.
