Shadow Projector
This is Shadow Projector that is built with the help of physics and trash items .
This is way to use ideas for fun and education as well , this shows a n another side of physics that helps you to use physics for fun .
Here you can see that shadows can be turn in artistic project for fun . Use of physics to turns shadows in designs .
It projects shadows of object that we put or design on it's screen front side .
I used simple Physics and trash items to built it .
Use physics to display art .
Using simple physics to display shadows in creative way , this project shows the use of science with a simple idea to demonstrate art .
No heavy machinery require , simple physics let you to present your art .
Supplies
- Cardboard box
- Cardboard paper tube
- A4 size sheets
- Led lights
- Switches
- Wires
- Battery conductor
- Buzzer
- Glue
- Screws
- Insulation tape
- Ice cream sticks
IDEA and Inspiration
This project shows how simple science turns into art with a simple idea .
Using long cardboard tube and led to display designs and differ patterns ,become easy with science .
Basically I focused to use only trash items and to combine trash with physics phenomena to built something educational and useful .
This project works for fun and safety both , use lenses to also make it more fantastic as you want .
Built Body of Shadow Projector
- Design a body as shown in image on cardboard
- Cut it
- than paste all parts together to form the body of projector
Paste Paper Sheets
- Paste paper sheets to provide it a better look
- design on it with paper sheet whatever you want
Add Instruments
- Here is a mechanical stability detector that is useful to get warn during earthquake .
- Using spring ,metal pieces and wire and a stable structure , that alarms when surfaces vibrates ,this shows how science helps to deal with problems we face .
- This mechanical stability detector beep a alarm when it surface get unstable .
Add Light Ray Tube
- Take cardboard paper tube
- take led light's and switches
- Now wire lights with switches
- Put led lights inside the tube
- you can choose different color led
- Also connect battery conductor in this to connect battery
Insert
- Now put tube inside the body of projector
- Also put mechanical stability detector
- Check all connections with battery and switches correctly
- Than simply attach all inside projector body as shown
Projector Stand
- Use cardboard to make it's stand
- Cut and paste cardboard pieces in the shape as shown in images
- Apply insulation tape on it
- Use cardboard tube to complete the stand
Arrange
- Now fix all the parts together
- Put projector on stand
- Here you can use 1 or 2 tube to adjust size you required
Size Adjustments
- Here in the image you can see different sizes
Finishing
Now design whatever you want and display
Explore Modes
- Now if you use it in day use white plane surface to project
- During night you can also use it
- You can switch on mechanical stability feature it will produce a sound through buzzer if device unstable
- You can use this feature as an earthquake detector
- Use magnifying glass lens to see differ sizes
- Your distance from screen can also vary sizes of images
Physics turns simple ideas in innovative project to solve daily problems .
Fun with Physics using shadow .
