Wake Up Your Way Alarm Clock |

Abstract |
|||
The
average alarm clock provides a poor wake-up experience due to its
abrupt nature and the
vice that is the snooze button. We intend to construct an alarm clock
that uses a combination of light and sound over an extended period
of time. The functions of our proposed alarm clock are as follows:
a gradually brightening light, possibly implemented via a duty cycle
controlled square wave; audio playback, possibly via a flash drive
and possibly stored in a common format such as mp3 or wave; voice memo
recording and playback, such that a person could leave themselves messages
like "You have a 7am meeting!" The alarm clock will have
one or more programmable alarm times, each alarm time can use any or
all of the above mentioned functions, and each function can be independently
started at a positive or negative programmable time offset from the
main alarm time. The alarm clock will make use of two or more LED displays
to provide a visual indication of time and to allow for the navigation
of menu options and configuration of alarm settings.
