My mini magic Alarm Clock!

[cyberphox]

nice work! now tell us more about touch!!!

[cowboysdude]

Right now the ONLY touch function that I needed was the alarm clock and this module is used for that:
https://github.com/fewieden/MMM-AlarmClock

You can turn the touch function on and off.

I have an official Raspberry Pi 7" touch screen so I had to do nothing to get it to work!! It just worked!
I plugged a powered speaker into the 3.5 jack on the RPI and I have sound… nothing more to do there.

What I’d like to do is find out if it’s possible to add the touch function to this module:
https://github.com/barnabycolby/MMM-Carousel

BUT I am also using this module:
https://github.com/ianperrin/MMM-ModuleScheduler

That turns the modules on and off at different times… at night the only thing that shows is the time and date…
keeps the glare down :)

my 7 inch touch just arrived this week and i havent opened it yet! lol…although i was thinking of using it with my extra Pi3 to make a photo booth!

@cyberphox That would work!!! I had the screen was waiting on the pi that got here yesterday and by last night it was up and running! :)

On Friday night my frame should be here [tried to make one but it literally exploded into pieces!]… and I’ll post more pics!

Actually I’m also waiting on this:

because I’m curious and want to see if I can make this work on a pi zero :)

[cowboysdude]

There it is complete!! :)

Thanks again @strawberry-3-141 for the awesome touch alarm clock! :)

Looks cool! Can you change the alarm from the GUI rather than the files themselves?

[cowboysdude]

@Cheese2face No it has to be done via the config file… ;)

Hey, I know this topic is extremely old but I’m really interested in making an alarm clock like this and I was wondering if u could tell me what type of frame you used.
