Snyearth
Snyearth is a world clock that displays the time of cities on a levitating globe. A single touch on a city location shows the local time of that city on the tray below. When two or more cities are selected, the time difference between them is displayed automatically. A translucent ring window with full-color LED lights reflects the colors of the sky in each time zone. Inside the globe, a directional light source simulates the alternation of day and night. The levitation is achieved with permanent magnets, electromagnets and Hall sensors.
