Script description

JP Clock

Shows the time with a Japanese period label on the 32×8 matrix.

Time format: HH:MM (24-hour) plus a two-kanji period on the right.
Periods follow everyday Japanese sense (uneven lengths), not meteorological definitions.

Example: 14:30 午後 = 2:30 p.m.

Periods

Hours Kanji Romaji Meaning
00–03 深夜 shinya Late night
03–05 未明 mimei Before dawn
05–08 早朝 sōchō Early morning
08–11 午前 gozen Morning / a.m.
11–14 正午 shōgo Midday
14–16 午後 gogo Afternoon / p.m.
16–18 夕方 yūgata Evening
18–21 夜間 yakan Night

Each period has its own split colours: time-side background, label-side background, and ink.

Digits and period kanji are pixel-drawn on the device
