3D model description

Just another seven segment LED clock.
Current version of SW working, but it isn't final version.
What is working:
* time on dislpay
* synchronization from NTP server
* time in local time zone. This zone must be specified manually on source code like "Europe/Prague". See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones
* extreme simple web interface to allow select LED color and brightest.
* connect to internet over WiFi. Network name and password must be specified manually in source code.
* ambient light sensor and automatic brightest control.(need APDS-9960 light sensor module)
* local RTC suport as clock source backup (need RTC module based on DS3231)

Features in todo list:
* show temperature from internet connected weather station
* better web configuration
* user friendly WiFi setting

It is almost fully parametric OpenSCAD design. Generated STLs are for 110mm digits, but you can create size as you want to have.
