About this model
This lamp is inspirited by the Lotus flower. It consists out of 12 separate leaves that can move because each has its own SG90 servo. These servos are controlled by an Arduino Uno. My intention was to control the servo’s by a light sensitive resistor (and it worked well), but for assembly I used a potentiometer. I also added a simple Arduino sketch for making assembly easier. It works with one potentiometer that controls al the leaves. If you don’t know how to install the servos and the potentiometer (light sensor) please consult the Arduino website: In this sketch I divided them in 6 pairs. See picture. The Leaves and LED holder are printed in “spiral vase mode”. One pair of leaves is printed as a vase. After printing this “leave vase” you have to cut them out with scissors. Most of the l…
