The project is a calendar/ alarm that changes color for different events that go on throughout your day. The user is able to pair it with Google and/ or iCalendar so when an event shows up, the alarm changes to a color previously set by the user for that event.

The Color Changing Alarm Clock helps people remember to attend online events or respond to texts, especially with the increase of Zoom calls during Covid-19.

The technology behind the project is an Arduino component with Bluetooth and an LED inside. The only thing that the Color Changing Alarm Clock does is light up and tell the user that they have a meeting. This is so people will not get distracted by using their phone and seeing notifications and instead go to the meeting.

This project is a color-changing planner (not final name) designed for people who want to have a more organized life. The device pairs with the user's calendar and works with it to display different colors for different tasks and events that the user has scheduled. For example, if the user has a zoom meeting at a specific time the device turns on a specific color correlated to "zoom meeting" and the speakers will say the time and announce the zoom meeting. 

This device is perfect for anyone who wants a fun way to keep themselves organized. The design replaces getting notifications on the phone or opening up a physical planner. Instead, the user can just see the color and hear on the speakers what they have to do. There's no distractions in this design, it's just one thing rather than going onto a phone and seeing a lot of random notifications. The color-changing planner also has speakers so even if the user is in another room, they can make the volume high enough to hear so they know when to do their task and it’s small enough to sit on a desk, making it easy to move around.

The technology in this design is an Arduino, an LED, and a speaker. It is covered with white cloth to diffuse the colors in a visible way.

The project is a multi color changing calendar/alarm clock. It is designed for the people who struggle to attend and get things done during their day. This alarm clock calendar pairs with the users apple calendar, icalendar, and will say out loud what tasks/activities the user has during the day. One example is if the user puts on their Apple calendar that they have Seminars at 12:00 PM on Tuesday, it will notify them by saying that you have seminars on Tuesday along with changing colors. The user can customize the color of the clock so when they have an activity to attend to, it will change colors to their personal preference. 

The object is made of a white cloth covering the polygon/cone shape. It will be powered by an ESP 32 and coded on Arduino and will make the LED shine through the whole object when the user has a task. 

This object is an interesting way of organizing the users day to be less drowsy and more amazing and open. While this Pandemic is happening, this object will be a good way to keep the user from forgetting tasks/activities that are important to them.
