I'm interested, what are some other similar / related systems.

I am aware of metric time (one day is 10 units of time) and tau (pi*2).

Well, probably some more, but I can't remember them right now.

I have my own base-16 time system I came up with https://fiftysix.scot/Base-16/Time , which I still need to finish.

Everything may end up base 16 anyway due to the digital paradigm pervading nearly every aspect of life.
