The Analemma was designed, patented, fabricated and donated to the University of Western Australia by Robert J. Collins, a retired engineer. It differs from most sundials in that it gives both the date and the accurate clock time throughout the day, without having to be corrected from tables, as well as displaying sun transits and almanac markings.
Sundial Type: Analemmatic - Vertical gnomon with elliptical dial
