Looks like a kit-built clock.
(right you are, William. You make this look easy!)

Some sort of home made calculator? The three groupings of LEDs look
like they could form a three-digit numerical display...
How about some schematics?! :^)

Nice try, Tim. heh

It is a clock. The sequencing of the 6 rows of lights determine what time it is.

Easy -- it is a BCD (binary count decimal) clock. The left pair of
columns are the hours, the second minutes, the third seconds. In a
regular clock the binary info would go to a display driver instead of
LED's.
Neat site! Thanks, I think I'll go find that clock kit I built 15
years ago and plug it in.....
