metronome a clock as a motion detector by M.W. from germany

Motion Detectors for daily use part one:

the clock "Metronome" (the object is moving like a metronome.)

We need objects as technical aids for everyday reminder service.
Alarm clocks, mobil phones and timers are ringing, clattering, roaring, whistling, piping:

... tiet tiet tiet... tiet tiet tiet...

this sound as a horror scenario: rudely, loudly, artificially
... an interference factor as a principle!

question: how the objects should remind us?

- How does the therapist want to perceive the end of the consultation-hour?
- How will the athlete be reminded of the end of the workout while listening to the music?
- Which sensory perception works ever with this everyday overstimulation?

answer: motion as a sensory stimulus of the peripheral vision
(scientific background: the peripheral vision is very efficient for the perception of movements.)

function:
The clock "Metronome" takes up its activity of attention in swinging with a gentle,
escalating motion without tearing the user directly from any concentration.

activation:
on a separate digital display in the back of the case the memory time will be set,
you define also on the digital display the modus of the movement
(___ seconds: how long? ___ % oscillation factor: how strong?).

the ON button (blue) on the right side will be pressed into the case to activate the memory status,
the linked OFF button (red) on the left side moves simultaneously out of the case. It marks the
active status of the clock.

The motion will stop automatically at the end of the defined memory frame.
To stop the programmed movement before ending you press the protrude red OFF button.

conventional use possible:
as a matter of course the “Metronome” has a sound as an additional sensory stimulus which can be activated
seperately (for instance for those who need to wake up with a sound).

the form:
a symbiosis between a clock and a tumbler toy in a minimalistic case

technical description:
the case injection molded, analog clockwork
accumulator cell rechargeable, replaceable,
separate digital display for the memory settings linked with the analog clock, sound unit,
separate charging unit

The motion is generated through the clock over a motor with a low-frequency vibration
(imbalance vibrating alert).
