Scarby Posted 23 March 2005 Share Posted 23 March 2005 From Yahoo Alarm clock set to wake doziest of sleepersLONDON (Reuters) - Can't get out of bed in the morning? Scientists at MIT's Media Lab in the United States have invented an alarm clock called Clocky to make even the doziest sleepers, who repeatedly hit the snooze button, leap out of bed. After the snooze button is pressed, the clock, which is equipped with a set of wheels, rolls off the table to another part of the room. "When the alarm sounds again, simply finding Clocky ought to be strenuous enough to prevent even the doziest owner from going back to sleep," New Scientist said on Tuesday.

shack Posted 24 March 2005 Share Posted 24 March 2005 I used to have an oversized baseball alarm clock. When the alarm went off, you threw it against the wall and the impact hit the snooze, so when it went off again you had to get up to find it! Old hat...

Then you didn't have to get up to find it when it went off again. Could keep that going all day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
