Use a Raspberry Pi to Power a Fancy Clock and Display Panel

Given that the Raspberry Pi is a mini-computer, it should come as no surprise that one of the most common designs is a dashboard-style display . On GitHub, DIYer n0bel has a guide on how to turn your Pi into a smartwatch.

The project here takes a Pi and an old monitor, attaches it to a wall, and displays a clock on it. There is a weather forecast, satellite map, and other general weather information next to the clock. There is even a slight neat backlight effect behind the display to draw more attention to it. You’ll find a complete guide to doing this for yourself on GitHub, including a guide for the desktop version if you don’t want to take up a lot of wall space.
