Project title: Automatic Table Lamp

Introduction: Table lamps are very popular among ordinary people. This is a device which gives a
certain amount of light which can use for a specific task such as reading a book or etc. So when
construct a table lamp have to consider the amount of light emitting through the bulb, because it must be
in the sufficient level to do the specific task. Power efficiency and safety of the lamp cover also huge
factors when selecting a table lamp. But most of the table lamps available in the market are not
constructed considering above factors. Most of them are constructed considering good external
appearance only. But in here the lamp is designed considering the efficiency of the lamp, power safety
and intensity of the bulb taken to the lamp. As the name says automatic table lamp needs no manual
operation for switching OFF and ON when there is need of light. Because it detects itself whether there
is need for light or not. Not only that the intensity of the table lamp also controlled automatically by
using a LDR. So the unwanted power consumption is not happen in here due to this. So this is very
economic. And also transistors with heat sinks are used in the circuit to work as electronic switches. So
the heat dissipation is reduced. And also the lamp cover material has sufficient strength to bear
dissipated heat. These things help to increase the safety status to a good level. As a traditional table lamp
normal bulb is not using here. Few number of LED bulbs are used instead of the traditional bulb to
increase the efficiency.

Objectives of the study

To use our theoretical knowledge to design equipment and experience practically what we have
learned in the lecture sessions.
To recognize limitations in product designing to get some idea about cost of the elements use for
the design.
Increase the practical knowledge in order to increase the quality of the equipment to an ideal
level by resolving practical problems.
To make a product with an ideal qualities, neatness and higher completeness achieving all
targets.
Methodology
Analyze the requirements and equipment available in the market.
Design the circuit with primary elements in order to full fill all the targets.
Analyzing the errors and faults of the circuit and find method to solve them and fix them.
Take the required circuit components and build the product.
Check errors (if possible) and fix them.
Implement the design and do further improvements.
Complete the design by fixing all the errors.
Finish the project and launch it to the market.
