Creative alarm clock

One thing I enjoy looking at is everyday things with a creative twist. These alarm clocks really caught my eye. Getting out of bed is difficult for many people. These alarm clock help you to interact with them so you get up easier. I found a selection on toxel.

The first alarm clock I am showing is called "Smash" visualizes the daily usage in form of deformations on the top surface of the device. The alarm is switched off by punching on the top of the alarm clock. This deformation becomes a sign for the individual daily usage.




This alarm below is very clever. It is based on digital paper, so to turn if off you simply scrunch it up.




The alarm shown below is my favorite, it jumps 3feet from yours bedside table and then runs around the room beeping.


This alarm clock only turns off when stood on.


The alarm above works by the pillow using an LED fabric substrate below the surface to wake the user using light. This substrate also functions as a display, showing the time on the surface of the pillow.

The pig alarm below is the most unusual one and not only it's looks. It wakes you up with the smell of bacon.
