Athletic Clock Overhaul

Welcome to the project webpage for the EELE 488/489 athletic clock overhaul!  Feel free to browse around and see the sights.  Please direct any questions, comments, or concerns to one of the team members.

This primary aim of the project is to design a control system to make a mechanical seven segment display functional again.  The seven segment displays are the property of the Big Sky Wind Drinkers, a Bozeman area running club.  The display digits are still operational, but the control system and the power supply need to be replaced, since the clock manufacturer, Chronomix, is no longer in business.  The clocks were manufactured in 1990, so the control system and power supply are also very out of date and will be updated by this project.
