Years ago I had a digital voltmeter that used these displays, and used 
stepper relays for the "logic".  I turned it into a clock.

The displays were OK, I prefer nixies. Having LEDs, with the ability to 
control the brightness of individual digits would be a big improvement.
There rearmost digits will be dimmer because they have to transmit thru 
more obstacles; making them progressively brighter should solve that issue.
Also, the displays shown on the website were manufactured with much better 
materials and precision than what I had from ~1960.

I eventually abandoned this clock because the relays were intermittent and 
would not respond to cleaning attempts.
