Looking for a self hosted Dementia Clock (lemmy.ca)

submitted 10 months ago by [email protected] to c/selfhosted

22 comments fedilink hide all child comments

I'm wondering if anyone is aware of a tool that could work as an internet connected dementia clock - that is displaying the time, time of day, date, and the ability to update the display remotely with reminders, notes, and messages.

I have an old iPad kicking around, which could save us from purchasing something like this.

Thanks in advance!

Have you looked up raspberry pi magic mirror projects?

You don’t have to use a a mirror, but just a pi and an old monitor mounted on the wall would probably accomplish everything you need.
