Making Prototype:
First of all the geometry is checked with the paper mock up.


Final mock-up for the beehive lamp


System Design:
Circuitary mainly consists of a LED Driver circuit,solar charger circuit,12 volt battery, LDR switch for ON/OFF purpose, mono crystalline phovoltaic cells and LEDs.

Materials Used to make the modular boxes:
Styrene Sheets - 1 mm thickness and 0.5 mm thickness
Acrylic sheets - 1 mm thickness

Two moulds where made to detail out the styrene at the top surface. Two moulds where made to make the Acrylic Boxes.

Machines Used to make the prototype:
Vacuum Forming machine
Drilling Machine

Material used for joineries:
