This interesting box of buttons is a talking poker tournament timer. Full of useful tools like a binary time display, words of wisdom, countdowns to the end of the game, and even good old “bicycle built for two” mode (around 1:20). While we find it fairly difficult to understand, we applaud the feature list, especially the song. He used an Arduino with a voice shield, so there’s not much to the electronics side, but you can download his source code from his site.

In theory it’s pretty cool but it’s impossible to understand the speech!
looks cool. love those little black boxes.
@wait: especially those with the red buttons on them…without text telling what they are good for :D
Dymo labels and Radio Shack…perfect together.
That look has become classic.
That song is “daisy bell” made famous by the 704 and Hal
