Snyearth Intuitive Global Clock

Snyearth

Snyearth is a world clock that displays the time of cities on a levitating globe. A single touch on a city location shows the local time of that city on the tray below. When two or more cities are selected, the time difference between them is displayed automatically. A translucent ring window with full-color LED lights reflects the colors of the sky in each time zone. Inside the globe, a directional light source simulates the alternation of day and night. The levitation is achieved with permanent magnets, electromagnets and Hall sensors.

Snyearth Intuitive Global Clock by Xiaolong Li was selected as an innovative example of industrial design by the A' Design Award. Snyearth Intuitive Global Clock won the Iron A' Design Award in Digital and Electronic Device Design in 2023. The A' Digital and Electronic Device Design Award is a juried, academic and highly prestigious design recognition program that honors superior design of smartphones, laptops, televisions, cameras, headphones, smartwatches, gaming consoles, tablets and more.
