That big grandfather clock in the library might be an impressive piece of mechanical ingenuity, and an even better example of fine cabinetry, but we’d expect that the accuracy of a pendulum timepiece ...

Comtoise watches, as seen here in the Comtoise Museum of master watchmaker Bernd Deckert, are a French pendulum clock from the French region of Franch-Comte. While they are beautiful antiques, they ...

Using this design, you can construct an electromagnetically impulsed pendulum clock with a 1-second beat. On the prototype, the pendulum rod is 115cm long with a bob adjusted to make it beat every ...

By replacing single atoms with an entangled pair of ions, physicists in Germany have demonstrated unprecedented stability in ...

For millennia, humanity's one-and-only reliable way to keep time was based on the Sun. Over the course of a year, the Sun, at any location on Earth, would follow a predictable pattern and path through ...

Here’s how to build a pendulum-controlled clock which can be made really accurate. Retro? – yes, but an interesting project all the same. You’ll need a spare quartz clock which must be adapted by ...

IIIF provides researchers rich metadata and media viewing options for comparison of works across cultural heritage collections. Visit the IIIF page to learn more. Aaron D. Crane (1804-1860) of ...

A new project has been published to the Hackster.io website this week from Jeremy Cook, who has created a unique single nixie pendulum POV clock powered by an Arduino Nano microcontroller together ...
