Dutchtronix Oscilloscope Clock - Featured on Hacked Gadgets

[zpunout]

Is the image generated from vectors or a raster scan?

[WOWJBEOWULF]

Oscilloscopes are fun when you have something to measure.

[DigiTan000]

@WOWJBEOWULF - Measure something with an oscilloscope?!!? Don't be silly!

[Minifig666]

That's a real clock signal!

(Bad pun, sorry)



[zenosonik]

Interesting hack, pretty cool actually. I still use my old 465 to this day & it works great for audio...

[andysquirrell]

HA! seems clever at first, BUT THE TIME IS WRONG :D

[mandriva2006]

it's correct

[cookie123456789012]

I WANT ONE!

[Tilex1990]

hehe really nice.

but to be serious.. i wouldn't leave my scope turned on all day with that freakin' watch on the screen. and i wouldn't pay 35 bucks for it

commerce -- halleluja O,o

[bbuubbi]

demo

its a @½&%ing demo

[alvoha]

I think this is awesome!

[TeamNES1]

Now that is just plain cool. I used to make some really weird patterns on an X&Y oscilloscope by just mixing more than one waveform on two function generators. Mesmerizing, really.

[zekonja24]

I used to mix X-video signal from bar generator and Y- from triangle generator , lool some nice patterns are the result , lool

[mrbeanslefthandman]

nothing special how boring can they get?

[biowerks]

they turned a sophisticated piece of lab equipment into a something that you can buy at walmart for $5. Cool, now off to those videos of paint drying.

[mickblock]

Follow me I know were there's a video of paint drying !

[WOWJBEOWULF]

@mickblock Watching paint dry, that is a military training movie. We need to know these things. Ever try to set a clock without training?

[10tremp]

@mickblock you forgot to link it

[facusana]

The time machine! It remembers me to the film "Back to the future!"

[AerosauruS]

are you blind? it HAS a tail

[whitestaa]

You know nothing.

[Piotr59mb]

:O But... how?!

[DreHectik]

REally cool, but I didn't see it respond visually to the audio. Cool stuff non the less

[Xploratio]

Nice ..

[grooveclubhouse]

leave it on for a few days and you have some great burn in of that.

[B1aze182]

It moves around, to avoid burn =P

[DANYPATAGON]

very nice!, but you can not use it like wall-clock or portable :)

[rllybites]

Bah! It's far more portable than the "hp atomic wristwatch" (try searching google images for that).

[snoodracoon]

lol

[phunkphish]

Amazing. A digital and analog scope.

[DieNadel666]

cool

[diywaddy]

Useless. It's WAY off!

[Xahichan]

it isn't way off. the digital readout states it is 10:06:55 pm

[akiratrooper]

perhaps diywaddy can't read time.

[Aeryk333]

Sweet!

[mdmde]

That is extremely cool, as is

the classic Tektronix 475 scope.

[adr1k000]

uhh okay...around 40-50 second mark when the clock changes into square, then back to clock - the picture moves.. also arent scopes meant to track sideways..?

[jsve000]

yes. typically the ray sweeps from left to right, but all scopes have an X-Y mode, in which you can control deflection of the ray both verticallz and horizontally.

[toresbe]

Not all scopes, but quite a lot of them do.

[hyperkinetic]

Don't forget the z-axis, necessary for blanking. Otherwise all the objects would have a line connecting them.

[jsve000]

Yeah, blanking is important, too. I don't think it can be called 'axis', though. It's just an input, like ext. triggering.

[dulcimoo]

I think it goes it to demo mode or somthing. The thing a a bunch of modes, you can even have it run the wrong way.

[flvnow]

The picture moves to avoid burn-in on the tube

[macmitchdog]

@flvnow

[DarkHeySoos]

VECTOR GRAFIX ROCK!!!!!!

[VideoJunkei]

An o-scope can display images faster than any tube Television ever could...this is real, I seem to remember a kit you can buy? Search 'Scope clock'...

[BarrykeNL]

not real

[TexZK]

television = powerful oscilloscope

What you see on a TV is like what you can see on an oscilloscope!!!

[VideoJunkei]

Yes, them beam that writes images to the screen can be moved around at least 10x faster than a normal set...

[hyperkinetic]

It's a sign of low intelligence to A) deny reality, B) open your mouth and show the world your IGNORANCE!

[BarrykeNL]

I clearly wasn't thinking when posting that. I blame alcohol, nicotine and my sink.

[lordkrafft]

NEAT!!!!!!!!
