ABSTRACT:
Balanced digital time displays for presenting readouts in which (A) minute digits are positioned to trail hour digits during the first half of each hour and are then reversed to lead the hour digits during the second half of each hour, (B) the minute digits are driven to count minutes up to a peak value of 30 during the first half of each hour and then down to 00 with advancement of the hour digits to the next hour, during the second half of each hour, (C) second digits are positioned perpendicularly below the minute digits and (D) the second digits are driven to count seconds up to a peak value of 30 during the first half of each minute and then down to 00 during the second half of each minute. Such balanced displays provide immediately comprehendible readouts of time in both gross and precise contexts.
