How about a NeoPixel lamp, that can be controlled with a smartphone. And why not adding some really funky features? Like turning the lamp on/off by the wave of your hand. And some nice animations. How about transmitting the temperature and humidity to your phone. And why not adding a scheduled sunrise, like the one from the sunrise simulator project? Too much? We’ll see!
First of all I need a housing. I decided to use two old CD spindle boxes with different heights. The bigger one will house the Neopixels, the smaller one all the electronics. To make a little glow effect, I wanted to make the transparent plastic look like frosted glass. You can achieve it, by ‘polishing’ it on the inside with sandpaper. To mount the Nepixels I used a pump spray bottle, that I’ve cut into length. A lot of hot glue, some holes for the wires and it’s a piece of cake.
