Ramos Alarm clock – The Alarm which forces you out of bed

It must be one of the most annoying alarm clocks ever made. Once it goes off, you have to go to the kitchen or bathroom and punch todays date into a dial pad. There is no snooze button on the alarm clock, and it has an internal backup battery, preventing you from simply pulling the power cord.

The alarm clock was invented by Paul Sammut, a 25-year-old engineer from Hoboken. Sammut started working on the clock because he found it more and more difficult to wake up in the mornings. He built the prototype and uses it every morning to wake up. Sammut said that he subconsciously fears the sound of the alarm, and nowadays gets up before the alarm can go off.
