Swiss designer Matthias Pugin has made a crazy clock called Switchital which is a Moving 7 Segment Digital Wall Clock that works by moving hidden magnets which arrange bars of 7 segment displays. At first I thought this was a design simulation but I think it’s real! I would like to have a look at the guts inside the clock and the controller that is an amazing choreographer.

This is just a 3D animation and some renderings. But I’m working on a prototype…

@Matthias: can’t wait to see some real stuff, looks fantastic!

I was just saying
