About Pluto Tha Lampa Gnìomh

Bidh Pluto a ’cumail am fòcas gu làidir air stoidhle. Tha an siolandair aerodynamic teann aige air a chuairteachadh le cas eireachdail suidhichte os cionn bunait trì-cheàrnach ceàrnach, ga dhèanamh nas fhasa a shuidheachadh leis an t-solas bog-ach-chuimsichte aige le mionaideachd. Chaidh a chruth a bhrosnachadh le teileasgopan, ach an àite sin, tha e a ’feuchainn ri fòcas a chuir air an talamh an àite nan reultan. Air a dhèanamh le clò-bhualadh 3d a ’cleachdadh plastaichean stèidhichte air arbhar, tha e gun samhail, chan ann a-mhàin airson clò-bhualadairean 3d a chleachdadh ann am fasan gnìomhachais, ach cuideachd a tha càirdeil dha eco.

Production Technology
Pluto was manufactured by Gantri, a company based in San Francisco. It utilizes corn-based plastics. Making it not only innovative, for using 3d printers in a industrial fashion, but also very eco-friendly.
Design Challenge
In order to make the design viable for FDM 3d Printing, we had to test out and split it into various interconnecting pieces that were later assembled together to form the final product.
Research
We worked on developing a complex form, full of negative space while still facilitating the printing and assembly process.
Inspiration
Pluto was inspired by telescopes, which use tripods and dynamic but stable forms. But instead, I sought to design a light that focuses on the earth instead of the stars.
Project Duration
The project started as an individual project from March to the end of June 2018 and was developed alongside Gantri's engineering from July 2018 to January of 2019.
Operation Flow
Pluto is equipped with a dimmable LED bulb that is regulated by a switch attached to its power cord. The amount of light being cast can be controlled to the user's preference.
