THE SMART LAMP

The idea of my final project is to make an interactive indoor smart lamp that has a modern and a dynamic style I want the design to be very minimalist, bold and playful at the same time that is why I chose a simple geometrical form to represent the lamp and I also want to integrate a covering opaque curtain for the light shade in order to change the angle of the light depending on the user input. the shade of the lamp will be covered by a very thin colored opaque layer that is folded up in the style of origami which can reveal and unveil the light source gradually when turning the lamp on or off and the folding movement will be fully motorized. The lamp will have many features like it can be fully controlled by a smart phone and it can change its lighting colors based on the user pre defined settings for instance the user can choose to switch between warm white and cool white based on the indoor space or outside weather also the user can specify the time to turn the lamp on and off. Finaly,For building the light I'll be using different kind of materials like birch veneer wood for making the outside frame and a frosted transparent acrylic sheet for making the shade and a very thin opaque plastic sheet that can be folded for making the origami curtain in addition to that I'll be using a PLA 3D printer for printing some of the mechanical and fitting parts inside the lamp like the gears and the mounting parts for the geared DC motor the electronic parts.
