T!ck is a wall-mounted time clock designed for individuals who work from home. It ad- dresses the concern that remote workers often lead sedentary lifestyles, which can lead to serious, sometimes even fatal, health issues as they age. T!ck features a playful visual notification system that users can set as a reminder. The distinct 'tick' sound at the end of the notification period
effectively interrupts periods of intense focus, prompting users to take a necessary break and move around.
