Major Project

My major project has taken inspiration from the Epoch Alarm Clock. My clock will operate the same except for some removed functions (Namely alarm and the ability to display roman characters). I will be able to display time in decimal, Binary, octal and hex. All number systems will be displayed in either 24hr or am/pm format. The clock will also simultaneous display either Unix Epoch Time or Current date depending on what the user sets (Unix time is proving difficult to calculate so may not be included in the final release). This is all displayed on a 16x2 character LCD with time being regulated by a DS1307 RTC. The project will be displayed in an alarm clock using the original buttons (some will have different functions than the ones labeled though) to manipulate the time displayed.
