4 | Development - Production (Stopped)¶
After many research during the first part of the final project period, I defined my project storytelling and its design.
After that, I was able to define my tools, materials and colours and to start to prototype my final project. Concretely, the shape of module.
During the midterm presentation, jury raised a number of issues / questions.
Design project¶
Moodboard¶
Inspired by the sun, I want work and play with transparency, reflections and shadows but also with lights and colours. The idea is to translate the sunlight through my project.
Material and colours charts¶
Module shape - Material surface¶
Surface¶
Module¶
File
Material
- Wood : thikness 5mm
- Wooden stick : diameter 8mm
Test modular construction¶
Electronic system¶
Circuit with LED strip and a solar power source.
Electronic materials¶
Power source (prototype) : For this first prototype I create a solar power source with a traditionnal solar pannel. But the idea is to use the OPV technology : a flexible, transparent and non toxic solar panel.
-
Adafruit Universal USB / DC / Solar Lithium Ion/Polymer charger - bq24074
-
Module Boost - Voltage DC-DC (To convert From 3.7 to 12V for led strip)
OPV - Organic photovoltaics - custom OPV
Light : - LED strip 60 leds/m - 12V - Cold white

Sensor¶
TO DO : - Define a sensor
Light sensor - How it work Light sensor - Material
