Ambient lighting, also known as LED ambient lighting, is an ideal choice for theme parks, hotels, homes, exhibitions, commercial spaces, and artistic lighting among LED lights. It creates the desired atmosphere for people’s lives. People can set their favorite patterns and styles according to their own lighting needs, and use different ambient lights based on their requirements and the situation of the scene.
If you want to use different ambient lights in various scenarios of your life, you can try making them yourself. In this issue, our laser expert brings you a DIY project: “DIY Ambient Lighting”!
6. Click on the “Rectangle” tool in the left toolbar with the left mouse button, and draw three rectangles: Rectangle 1 with a width and height of “10, 21.6”, and Rectangles 2 and 3 with a width and height of “3, 10”;
Align Rectangle 1 to the upper right corner of the lower cover;
Connect Rectangles 2 and 3, and center-align them to the right of Rectangle 1.
Select Rectangles 1, 2, and 3, copy and paste them, and place the copied rectangles in the lower right corner of the lower cover.
Duplicate and paste the two sets of Rectangles 1, 2, and 3, and then perform a “Horizontal Mirror” operation on them. Place the mirrored sets aligned to the left side of the lower cover.
Select Rectangles 3 and 4, duplicate and paste them, and then move the duplicated rectangles to the center of the lower cover as shown in the figure below:
7. With the left mouse button, select the three rectangles within the red area 1, duplicate and paste them twice, and place them on the left and right sides of the lower cover, respectively.
Select the rectangles within red areas 2 and 3 along with the two rectangles in the lower cover, duplicate and paste them once to obtain the pattern within red area 4.
Finally, perform a “Union” operation between the outer rectangle and the six rectangles on both sides as shown in the figure below.
9. With the left mouse button, select the lower cover and the long rectangle above it, and perform a “Union” operation.
Delete the large rectangle in the lower cover.
Click on the small rectangle above the lower cover and perform a “Difference” operation.
Click on the lower cover, set the rounded corner radius to “3”, and apply rounded corners to the grooves as shown in the figure below.
10. With the left mouse button, click on the “Rectangle” tool in the left toolbar and draw two rectangles with a width and height of “100, 6”. Place them on the top and bottom sides of the left cover.
Click on each rectangle and perform a “Difference” operation separately.
Draw a circle with a diameter of “6” and align it horizontally in the center of the left cover as shown in the figure below.
12. Duplicate and paste the two lower covers and the back cover once.
With the above operations, you have obtained all the drawings for the square frame of the ambient light, as shown in the figure below.
1. With the left mouse button, click on the “Rectangle” tool in the left toolbar and draw Rectangle 1 with dimensions of “93, 100”.
Duplicate and paste the small rectangle inside the lower cover and move it to the center of Rectangle 1.
Duplicate and paste Rectangle 1 and the small rectangle as shown in the figure below.
5. With the left mouse button, select the two small rectangles, and press the “Delete” key on the keyboard to delete them.
Using the left mouse button, click on the “Rectangle” tool in the left toolbar, and draw two rectangles with dimensions of “80, 80” each. Place them in the middle of the two large rectangles as shown in the figure below.
This course belongs to an advanced level, where young designers need to brainstorm and consider how to connect the structures for the outer frame. The structures obtained from “Creation” require further redesign to achieve the outer frame of the ambient light.
Next comes the circuit connection, where young designers will need to use a soldering iron. It is important for them to have a basic understanding of circuit connections to ensure that they can connect the circuits correctly.
There may be some difficulty during the operation, so young designers should be careful and precise!
