The LÄMP-Prism is an aesthetically pleasing and colorful effect lamp that can be used in your home. It can be controlled using Zigbee (e.g., Philips Hue) and has RGBY + WW/CW LEDs, providing a wide dynamic range and fantastic color representation. The lamp can be soldered together at home or assembled by JLCPCB.
An inbuilt slow fade-animation creates plenty colored dots around the room, one can choose from three different animations by quickly bringing red from 0% to 100% and back three times. LAEMP will switch from static light, to slow-fading dots to being an RGB-beacon. Its most pleasing mode is the slow-fading animation. It is fast enough to raise the rooms texture, slow enough to not be irritating and just perfect for comfy nights.
The project consists of nine PCBs that are cleverly interlocked with pinheaders and capacitors. The Prism-like shape, combined with its 291 LEDs, projects a slightly changing dotted pattern into its environment.

This project is an attempt to add some colored lights and interesting patterns to ones home. I hope you enjoy it! :3

Please note that the E75-2G4M20S module is End of Life and is hard to obtain. I'm working on a V2.0 with STM32WB (see MiniBee). The Hex-Base-Board is henceforth subject to be updated, all other boards shouldnt change.
LAEMP-Prism is a sister project to LAEMP-Panel
The overall concept was developed in OpenSCAD and a pseudo-random pattern of circles was choosen for the walls. If one wants to put effort into this project, different walls can be used. The standard base-to-wall-interface also allows for much different and custom walls. E.g. hexagonal holes, shorter or taller walls, bended walls, ...
This build is definitely time-consuming, as each LAEMP Prism features 291 LEDs, and therefore requires at least 291 100nF capacitors. Additionally, the wall PCBs are rather thin and long, making reflow difficult and assembly time-consuming.
Once all eight boards are assembled (the top board has no components ^⁻^), they can be interlocked with one another. To do this, begin by plugging the LED-Base-Board into the Base-Board, and then carefully plugging wall after wall into the baseboard. Try to put the Top-Board onto the build after assembling five boards. The board with the Type-C cutout should not be the last board to assemble. Finally, try to plug in the last board. This step can be quite tricky and may require a few attempts. Once all boards are assembled, align all walls with each other and place the whole board onto the 3D printed base.
You will need the following set of baords for a build:
- 1 x Base-Board
- 1 x Base-LED-Board
- 1 x Top-Board
- 5 x Wall-Board
- 1 x USB-Wall-Board

There are two firmwares to be flashed, one for the ESP32 and one for the E75-2G4M20S.
This is a simple Arduino project and can be flashed via Arduino (initially built on Arduino 1.8.19).
Please refer to the awesome works of PeeVeeOne to flash Light_ColorLight_JN5168_RGB onto the E75-2G4M20S module.
