[mukto-mona] Ahmed Mohamed's clock?



I was curious whether the whiz kid, Ahmed Mohamed really invented a new clock? Did he? His arrest was a sad affair but his invention was rather embarrassing. Not sure why he thought it was an unique invention?

"Electronics experts who examined photos of 14-year-old Ahmed Mohamed's creation called it a fraud loudly enough to grab the attention of famed atheist and biologist Richard Dawkins, who on Sunday tweeted: "We were all fooled."
