A photograph, turned into light. ✨ LumiPhane is a 3D-printed lithophane lamp that transforms a photograph into a physical light display, revealing the image through the varying thickness of the printed surface. For the lighting, I used @waveshare00 ultra-thin 4 mm COB LED strip with their 12V power adapter for bright and even illumination. A simple idea brought together through 3D printing, lighting, and mechanical design.

🏠 One of our community makers turned the UNIHIKER K10 into a wall-mounted smart home controller for their room! 🤯 It combines voice control, appliance control, environmental monitoring, and a custom touchscreen interface — all packed into a compact 3D-printed enclosure. The project uses the K10’s built-in display, microphones, sensors, ESP32-S3, and GPIO to create a practical device that can control lights, fans, and even an AC. 🔗 Check out the full project on @instructables : instructables.com/I-Made-the…
