# WiFi Clock Powered by ESP8266 Module This project showcases a WiFi enabled 7 segment clock, engineered with the ESP8266 microcontroller. The display is driven by 116x WS2813 RGB LEDs, capable of delivering ~32W for four digits. The device operates within a wide supply voltage range of 9-24V and features four integrated 5V/3A voltage regulators, boasting >90% efficiency at 12V input. To ensure safe operation, an input voltage/current sensor is integrated to prevent damage from overvoltage or excessive current draw. In addition to these features, the WiFi clock also includes a temperature sensor to monitor and regulate internal temperatures, preventing overheating issues. Real-time clock functionality allows for precise timekeeping, while an ambient light sensor adjusts display brightness accordingly. For those interested in exploring the project's design, schematics and STL files are available on GitHub at https://github.com/sascha432/ESP8266-WiFi-Clock.
