Time in motion; RGB Ring Clock

Why display time with numbers when you can watch it flow as light?This project turns time into a living, circular light sculpture using an Arduino and an addressable RGB LED ring.The light clock is built around a WS2812 RGB LED strip controlled by an Arduino UNO R4 WiFi. Instead of traditional clock hands, time is visualized through color and motion. The LEDs form a continuous loop where light travels smoothly around the circle, creating a calm yet futuristic way to read the time.Each color has a clear meaning:Red represents the hour hand,Blue shows the minute hand,and all the rest marks the passing of time in 5-second segments per full rotation.Together, these moving light accents create an intuitive and almost hypnotic sense of time.Beyond being a clock, this project is a perfect blend of electronics, coding, and design. It’s ideal for makers who want a visually rewarding Arduino project while learning about LED control, timing logic, and animations. The design is fully customizable—
