D’Luminous Project Brief: To design a lighting product inspired by Nature using Arduino.

Inspiration: Chameleon Concept of the Light: Switch off the light and, as if by magic, the lamp disappears. Switch it on and, again Voila as if by magic, all you see is the light itself. Is it a lamp or a chameleon?

Taking inspiration from the features of a Chameleon, D’Luminous is a light on the ceiling which can camouflage with the ceiling and create mood lighting.

Materials: Translucent White Polyester with a tensile structure up to 200 Kn/m, MDF Board, LED Strip light, Stepper Motor,

Ideation

Target Auience: -High end Niche People -Image Conscious -Hotels Design Insights: Chameleons change their color due to: -Changes in temperature or light -Reflection of their moods -Camouflage Features of the Light: -Light off: Light merged with ceiling -Light on: Light comes down three dimensionally in different levels, suspended from heavy metal balls through ropes.

-The forms will be tensile structures made of cloth which will open downwards when the lights turn on and will fold upwards when the lights turn off.

-The light will change intensity to create different moods.

-L= 10” B=50” Depth=10-15” -Intensity of the light can be changed to create mood lighting Mechanism: The pulley system would be controlled by Arduino to wind and unwind the rope at different time intervals to create dynamism.

Project Brief: Innovate a product based upon the mechanism and function of an existing electro-mechanical product.

Inspiration: Mechanism of Heat Glue Gun. Product Description: The product is designed to melt food items like jaggery, Sugar, Chocolate, Caramel and Butter with different melting points to make syrups for dressing for waffles, pancakes, etc at the dinner table.

Materials: Carbon Fibre body, Copper barrel

Ideation

Design Insights: Product should have the following features: -Heating should stop at a set temperature -Battery operated for ease of usage -Vessel for keeping solid food item -Inner parts detachable and washable -Since jaggery/chocolate pieces are big, a tube is needed for the pieces to go inside them and then soften and melt into smaller pieces and travel throughout the nozzle and come out in liquid form.

-Pressure needed to push the food item forward.

-Heating Range of product: 30-110 °C. -A regulator to regulate the temperature of heating.

-Wattage needed: 80-160 W About the Product: Machine to put in jaggery, chocolate, sugar, caramel, etc where the heating and melting takes place and come out in liquid form through the nozel.
