ESP Clock made from 12 Adafruit HUZZAH ESP8266 breakouts

Thanks to Thomas for sharing his clock project with us! Check out more info here.

Made from 12 ESP8266. Each slice controls 5 minutes, plus a certain hour.

Slices independently get the time from the Web, then display their part.

Setup is simplified through a D-Link DIR-505 repeater / access point.

Note that ESP is also the ISO three-letter country code for Spain.

Adafruit HUZZAH ESP8266 Breakout: Add Internet to your next project with an adorable, bite-sized WiFi microcontroller, at a price you like! The ESP8266 processor from Espressif is an 80 MHz microcontroller with a full WiFi front-end (both as client and access point) and TCP/IP stack with DNS support as well. While this chip has been very popular, its also been very difficult to use. Most of the low cost modules are not breadboard friendly, don’t have an onboard 500mA 3.3V regulator or level shifting, and aren’t CE or FCC emitter certified….UNTIL NOW! Read more.
