Colour Clock

An animated clock using colours. Blobs at the end of the hour, minute, and second regions change colours over time (red = 12, yellow = 3, green = 6, blue = 9).

My idea was that this might help younger children to tell the time without having to know what numbers mean (e.g. it's yellow and orange).

I have also implemented a sine-wave second "tick", and stuck the minute hand to integer positions. This makes the clock a bit more interesting, because each hand tells the time in a different way.

Technical note: This version displays the clock natively using Java drawing elements. The old version, which accessed a website to display the clock via SVG and Javascript, has been renamed to "Colourful Clock".
