It wouldn't necessarily need a physical set of blocks. An electronic version with touch screen display could spare you the logistics of a camera (etc) but at the expense of the loss the touch and feel of snapping together Legos. My problem might be that I would still be late to work because I blew all my time playing with the Legos. |

There is another hazard. Kids and pets may find better uses for those Legos. Besides ingesting them, they might drop them on the floor where one might step on them while panicking to get the alarm turned off.. That will wake you up! |

Still, I give this idea a plus. |

Where is the requirement that we be mentally alert the moment we wake up? It's enough, surely, that we be awake just enough to reach over and smash the alarm clock against the wall. |
|

That's what I thought this would be.

[jutta] Okay, okay. But what is so hard about a computer detremining rectangular COLORED bricks? if processing was an issue I would just make the LEGO structure flat, facing the camera. Sort of 2-D. |

I thought I was so clever searching google images to find out this was baked many times over. |
|
| |
That was until I actually read the idea and not just the title. Now it seems I am not clever, just disappointed. |
