ABSTRACT:
An electronic timing device has a transparent liquid crystal display for use on an overhead projector, for projecting a large image of the LCD numerals on a screen or wall of a classroom, for timing of tests or other activities. The timer has a plastic casing, various function keys, a solar cell and/or battery, other internal electronics and a transparent liquid crystal display. Foldable legs of the timer, when open, maintain the timer a set distance above the light stage of the projector so as to prevent the LCD from overheating. One of the foldable legs, in the closed position, serves as protection and as a reflective backing for the LCD, so that the timer can function as a desk top LCD clock in the closed position. The timing device can function as a clock or timer in various modes.
