Time flows. Minute by minute. Drop by drop. The designer clock Drop-A-Min visualizes this in a particularly elegant way. Not recognizable as a clock at first glance, it quickly reveals its elegance and simplicity.
The minutes are arranged vertically one above the other in a curved band of 59 white LEDs in a minimalist housing. The hours lie on the central axis of the sine and shine in red.
At every full minute, the LEDs light up one after the other for a brief moment from top to bottom, making it appear as if this minute is dripping down. It comes to rest on the last LED and the band is filled with further minutes until the hour. After every minute, the display is still until the next minute begins.
The arrangement is chosen so that the edges of the sine are ten minutes apart. By counting these maxima, you can quickly determine the time, even if many minutes are already lit.
