bedside clock

Bedroom wake-up device

A bedside clock is a small clock kept on a nightstand or bedside table, typically featuring an alarm function to wake the sleeper.

The form has evolved from wind-up alarm clocks to digital displays to smartphone apps, but the purpose remains: telling time without getting out of bed, and getting you out of bed when necessary.
