Project the time anywhere with the TimeSphere designed by Stefano Giovannoni. We saw this briefly at ICFF, it’s a wireless projection clock with an induction charged projection unit (the wireless ball) that can be moved and positioned any way you want to give you the best possible view of the time. It’s also a self-setting clock that features dual alarms, indoor temperature, and contactless keys for operation.

Also designed by Stefano Giovannoni, the WeatherBox, a wireless weather station that features a graphical weather forecast with 5 channel support (for additional remote sensors) as well as a self-setting atomic clock and alarm. The unit also has an easy to use rotary dial on top for navigation.

So the ball flies, right? Cool!

Doesn't float. The ball sits in a well, and (by induction) is recharged, so its "cordless" and easy to reposition. No levitation.

The weatherbox sports a clean, industrial look. But the typefont is illegible (at 2 am could you tell the "3" from an "8"?). Form and function should be equally well balanced in a clock....

I agree- while the amount and positioning of the data on the clock in incredibly pleasing, those numerals are a bit too dense for blurry eyes... or even clear eyes from across a room.
