Prototyping back on campus!
While Greg has been busy in Africa conducting more research for our project, Bryan, Lesley, and I have been working together back on campus at the Design School and Terman Loft.
The three of us are interested in prototyping a light fixture that provides disperse light for long enough each night to provide a household enough light to increase their mobility within the home, study, read, and cook by.
We ordered some LEDs online and put together the circuity work for them.
We also have been playing around with different mirror surfaces to learn study their capacity to provide disperse light.
More to come about our findings…
