An idea for a 2 segment display (using rotation)

A cool idea for a 2 segment display possible by rotating the display. Though this seems unrealistic, I bet someone could make a clock that very quickly rotates the segments.
Thanks to ‪@luxfundred‬ for getting me interested in segmented displays.

They already invented a 2 segment display using rotation centuries ago. They called it clock.

Interesting idea, I think you should do a 3-segment version, since 2 segments is huge compromise even with the rotation

@flingyourself Жыл бұрын

I agree, it is. If I do a three segment version, do you think I should try to include symbols other than numbers because of the more possibilities? I’m saying this because even a 3 segment display would have more than enough combinations with 2 rotations.

Different types of displays with rotations already exist (by the way, If you can rotate you can just write all the numbers on the edge of a 360/180 semi/circle (which acts as "1-segment") and put a window over it so that rotating the correct amount shows the required symbol or number). Flip-flap displays-an old display tech used rotation to show any symbol.Also another example is mechanical coin meters found in some old electricity meters also used rotation to show digits.

The trick is mainly that you have to look at just one part of it for it to make sense. For example, 3 is on the left in the digit for 3, and the symbols are both on the far right.

@AussiePainterandWriter-kk1ob Жыл бұрын

Another way to think about it is you can make the one segment out of thick paper so its a bit like saying writing the numbers 0 to 9 on the edge and drawing a circle on it does not automatically split the paper into smaller bits of paper or segments-its still 1 piece of paper or 1 segment but with numbers drawn on it. In other words writing stuff on paper doesn't split the paper.

@AussiePainterandWriter-kk1ob Жыл бұрын

Things like flip-flap displays which use rotation and pulse meters (sometimes found in old electricity meters) which use rotation were invented decades ago. The problem of using rotation and circular type segments to display symbols in a practical and efficient way was solved decades ago.
