How to Create Dual Spiral Marble Clock with Raspberry Pi (Video)

Prepare to be captivated by a truly unique timekeeping marvel! C Forde has crafted an extraordinary piece that transcends conventional clocks. Featuring two ball bearings gracefully moving up and down stepper-driven spirals, this masterpiece not only tells time but also serves as an engaging conversation piece. The innovative creation is meticulously controlled by a Raspberry Pi Pico, showcasing the fusion of creativity and technology in a mesmerizing display. Let's delve into the fascinating details of this exceptional project on hackster.io.



Where most marble clocks contain a large number of marbles, this design is minimalist in comparison and contains only two. Although ball bearings rather than marbles, one for hours and one for minutes.

A small digital clock display is included for information, time and time setting but given that this is a marble clock the digital clock can be switched off so as not to be a distraction to the main elements.
