bikeperson45 Posted November 20, 2016 Report Share Posted November 20, 2016 Little project I'm working on and I'm trying to find some way of showing a clock that will show a 24 hour period, but so that it's adjusted to complete this time period in an hour and a half? Anyone know of any resources like this? Hope that's made sense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeff costello Posted November 20, 2016 Report Share Posted November 20, 2016 (edited) not helpful, but there are russian army watches that have 24h scales - one day is one full turn of the dial. i think "raketa" is one of the brands. there are quite a few on ebay. i kinda wanted one a few years ago, but watches are just too useless.

Danny Posted November 20, 2016 Report Share Posted November 20, 2016 Getting it exact would be hard but you could hack up a regular clock mechanism? You wouldn't get a motor spinning that slow so it would have to be heavily geared. Or go really hardcore and make something using something like an arduino to control it.

ooo Posted November 21, 2016 Report Share Posted November 21, 2016 (edited) If you can use a computer just use this on google chrome https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/youtube-playback-speed-co/hdannnflhlmdablckfkjpleikpphncik while watching this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7bkk1ibiPRw or video editing gear can probably do it pretty easily.

BJ. Posted November 21, 2016 Report Share Posted November 21, 2016 Video a regular clock for 24 hours and then time lapse it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikeperson45 Posted November 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2016 Thanks guys, think I'll try the time lapse method, not too sure how my laptop will manage with it's wee little processor but we'll see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Rainbird Posted November 21, 2016 Report Share Posted November 21, 2016 Does it need to be a video, or can it be an animated graphic of some sort? Wouldn't be too tricky to sort out as an animation via Photoshop. Else you could get hold of a video of a clock ticking through 24 hours and speed it up in any number of video editing software choices Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
