OSCILLATING GLASSWARE CLOCK WITH STROBED ILLUMINATION
A clock assembly includes a base to receive a bottom of a glassware, posts extending from the base, a clock disposed on the one or more posts, a frame to be at least partially disposed within an annulus of the glassware, and lighting elements to output light to illuminate the glassware. The frame has a first drive and sensing inductor that generates a first magnetic field to displace one or more first magnetic elements disposed on the glassware, and senses a first movement associated with the one or more first magnetic elements. A second drive and sensing inductor generates a second magnetic field to displace one or more second magnetic elements disposed on the glassware, and senses a second movement associated with the one or more second magnetic elements.
