Wave coarsening in active elastic media is a phenomenon in which vibrations spontaneously increase in wavelength, period and amplitude before forming a globally synchronized time crystal.

The world’s first mechatronic cycling computer (a digital unit with analog movement), OMATA presents a refined yet restrained design without sacrificing the performance expected of a modern digital device. Built as an intentional alternative to screen-fatiguing and noisy digital electronics, OMATA captures data silentl
