The Talking Alarm Clock

powered by WIZ750SR

Hackster.io Contest PageProject Description: 

This project, the Talking Alarm Clock (TAC) keeps accurate time, features a large display for viewing time and incorporates numerous alarm wake-up functions. It’s built around the WIZ750SR module which allows the user to customize the alarm clock to suit their needs/preferences.

The time is announced with recordings of my daughter when she was 4 years old back in 2000. I waited until now to make a project that allowed MP3 audio files to be played easily and to connect the clock to the LAN!
