This alarm clock, or, to give it its proper name, the Aphelion clock concept, does not simply snooze you awake – this bright gadget knows that chances are you go down again – but gets you out of your bed and on your feet playing ball.
How does the Aphelion bedside friend achieve this feat? It catapults a ball at the pre-set time, and there is no peace for you until you retrieve the ball and replace it into the holder to kill the snooze.
Other features are hardly worth mentioning – a built-in MP3 player and radio, a digital display with the time read clearly – but the ball thing can bring out an inventor in you, placing the alarm-clock to aim the ball at your prone self, towards a far corner of the room where you will have to search for it waking completely in the process, or at a glass of water that will topple and treat you to a small shower to ensure your waking up properly.
With all those terrifying possibilities the Aphelion concept may not find a manufacturer after all.
