Description

I have seen this as a commercial mechanical clock. Your brain sees the analogue proportion of time left. ### featured ### THANKS ### Set your pizza timer to ten minutes and watch it burn... ...display 45 min exam time on a whiteboard... ### http://scratch.mit.edu/users/eventexception/studios ### READ ON, for ex. a detailed EXPLANATION by user: Radu4000 ´It will ask you to write a number that will represent minutes, and then a number that will represent seconds. Then, the circle will begin to blacken, and it will only have an outline after the time you entered has passed. (if you entered 2 minutes and 43 seconds, the circle will be completely black in that time) ´ Check the comment of user @Death_Piggies where i might have seen this mechanical timer years ago!

Even more: search for "Human-Machine Interface" Scientific background see figure 18: http://goo.gl/dmpUy New: click background to toggle digits, 12 hour local time. # Credits am/pm clock http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/10627339
