Final Project¶
For my Final Project I began to think about something that I would like to contruct based on intrinsic motivation and that would provide me with real added value.
So I decided to design a floor lamp with a custom control system. This project focuses on mechanical design and the combination of various manufacturing technologies, connected to an external contactless control unit.
floor lamp¶
The base of the lamp incorporates a brightness control and other electronic components.
control unit¶
The control unit can control the colors of the lamp via 3 Time of Flight Sensors. In addition to static adjustments, various modes allow the user to set dynamic programs that can be changed and anable playful interaction. Its infrared (Time of flight) sensors and the mode control are connected with the components for controlling and communication with the lamp. A stylish case incorparates all the components.
The bill of materials is minimized nevertheless expansion is possible.
Use case¶
Wether you simply want to change the ambiance of the lighting on a quiet evening, or want to add more expression to your dancing on a fun dance night throught the unique interaction with gesture contol via the control unit, this system makes it all possible.
Here is a small sketch to help you imagine it better.
