About Pluto Itara Ryakazi

Pluto ikomeza kwibanda kumiterere. Icyuma cyacyo, cyindege ya aerodynamic kizengurutswe nigitoki cyiza gishyizwe hejuru yimpande eshatu, byoroha guhagarara hamwe nurumuri rworoshye-ariko rwibanze hamwe neza. Imiterere yacyo yahumetswe na telesikopi, ariko, irashaka kwibanda ku isi aho kuba inyenyeri. Yakozwe hamwe nicapiro rya 3d ukoresheje plastiki ishingiye ku bigori, irihariye, ntabwo ikoreshwa gusa printer ya 3d muburyo bwinganda, ariko kandi yangiza ibidukikije.

The Recognition

About the Igihembo cya A' Design Award cya Zahabu

Pluto Itara Ryakazi ni uwegukanye Igihembo cya A' Design Award cya Zahabu, ishimwe ry'agaciro gakomeye ritangwa ku bishushanyo biri ku rwego rwa mbere, bitangaje kandi by'indashyikirwa. Abegukanye Zahabu ni ibihangano birimo udushya twinshi, bifite icyerekezo kandi bimurika, bigaragaza impano, ubwenge n'ubuhanga bw'ababihanze.

Electrical component certified by SGS for UL and CSA. Manufactured at the Gantri Factory in San Leandro, California.
Tags: 3d printing, brazilian design, space, focus, PLA
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.
