Klaxon 2.0 – Accelerometer and Light Sensor enabled Alarm

by Saijo George on September 15, 2008

in Uncategorized


Klaxon is an alarm clock, with added specific functionality. It supports multiple alarms with snoozing. What makes this application special though is the ability to interact with the application, through motion or light. The user has the options to shake the phone, flip it over or turn it towards light; Klaxon has integrated feature for customization of interactivity. Users are able to associate commands (snooze, turn off) to gestures while the device feeds back by default after successful command (vibrate once for Snooze mode, vibrate twice if alarm is turned off).

Example: Wake up alarm at 6:00 AM > Flip over to snooze 10 minutes > Snooze alarm at 6:10 AM > Shake to turn alarm off!


Features :
* If you have a 480×640+ screen, you will see the new UI. It’s pretty. Still have to skin the alarm form, but besides that, it is done.
* Possibly fixed bug where Klaxon would stay resident in memory.
* The number controls are now gesture based: you can flick them and they will scroll through their range quite rapidly!
* You can now preview the alarm using the play button. (Only available in the new UI)

To Do:
* Time localization (such as 24 hour mode).
* Volume control.
* Figure out a way to turn off the backlight, but also not allow the device to go into sleep mode when snoozing.
* Fix sound looping issue.

If you find this tool useful, please donate to the developer.

I dont think so, this application req the Gsensor / accelerometer on the device. SO currently it will work only on the devices like Touch Diamond / Touch Pro
