| DESIGN NAME: Eclipse PRIMARY FUNCTION: Wall Lamp INSPIRATION: The design of the Eclipse wall lamp is inspired by the solar eclipse phenomenon. The moon blocks the light emitted by the sun to form a solar eclipse. The sun is a symbol of light. The phenomenon of solar eclipse brings light and dark changes to the sun, which has inspired the design of wall lamps. Also, sunrise and sunset are symbols of time. When the wall lamps operate automatically, they can be regarded as Sketchy clocks. UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: In the design of the Eclipse wall lamp, it consists of two parts, a lamp that represents the sun and a black metal frame that represents the moon. The frame rotates around the axis with time, thereby blocking the light from the lamp, forming a phenomenon similar to a partial solar eclipse and a total solar eclipse. This phenomenon reflects the passage of time while adjusting the brightness of the light. Of course, you can also adjust the brightness by turning the frame by your hand or APP. OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: When the wall lamp runs automatically, the frame rotates around the axis, which is a rough clock. Of course, the user can also adjust the brightness of the wall lamp by manually adjusting the angle of the frame, or control the angle or rotation speed of the frame through the mobile phone APP. PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: The project started in September 2019 and was exhibited in the School of Design and Art of Beijing Institute of Technology in January 2020.

PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: The lamp body uses a built-in power supply and switch design. It uses LED arrays to emit light. The lampshade is made of matte plastic. The frame is made of black metal. The rotation axis around the frame has an angle sensor. When the frame rotates, the LED light is controlled to turn on and off. Forms the effect of an eclipse. SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: 60 mm x 15 mm x 60 mm Eclipse lamp is powered by a 5V 1A DC power supply and has a built-in rechargeable battery with a battery capacity of 1800mAH. TAGS: Eclipse， Lamp， Adjustable-light， Rotating， Time lapse RESEARCH ABSTRACT: The contents of the research included the symbolic meaning of the solar eclipse in different cultures, the possibility of establishing a connection between the solar eclipse and the wall lamp, and the technical possibility of brightness adjustment through angle sensors. This also makes me think about whether using some natural phenomenon to guide the design will resonate with the user and whether it can build a more natural and beautiful relationship between the user and the product. CHALLENGE: First of all, it is the reproduction of the solar eclipse. How to design the shape of the wall lamp so that the user can establish the connection between the eclipse and the wall lamp. Secondly, it is the design of technical feasibility, how to design the internal structure and circuit, and make the product operate as expected.

NAME: School of Design and Art, Beijing Institute of Technology PROFILE: Beijing Institute of Technology's School of Design and Art, located in Beijing, was formerly the Department of Industrial Design established in 1984. It is one of the earliest institutions of higher learning to set up industrial design disciplines in China. After more than 20 years of practice and exploration, it has gradually established a leading position in the field of domestic design education and has become a member unit of the Industrial Design Teaching Steering Committee of the Ministry of Education. In order to meet the needs of multi-disciplinary and diverse design talents in the highly developed socio-economic society in China, since 2000, the college has successively established departments of visual communication design, environmental art design, cultural heritage, decorative painting and traditional arts and crafts. The college was formally established in 2002, gradually forming a comprehensive professional development pattern relying on science and technology, combining design and art. In 2009 it was renamed the School of Design and Art. |
