8-Bit Minecraft Diamond Ore Lamp - Siri Enabled!

thingiverse

I've crafted Minecraft diamond ore lamps with precision, but they all seemed to lack one crucial detail - the defining pixelation that Minecraft fans adore. Utilizing techniques from 3D printed lithographs and features of PrusaSlicer, I was able to imbue my lamp with the nostalgic charm of 8-bit gaming. This lamp can be effortlessly controlled via Siri or its analogues on other platforms through Homebridge. With the Home app on my iOS devices, I can easily adjust the color, brightness, and on/off state at will using a familiar interface that I use to control other devices. I can also use Siri commands: "Hey Siri, turn the Diamond lamp on." "Hey Siri, set the brightness of the Diamond lamp to 100%" "Hey Siri, set the color of the Diamond lamp to any desired hue" or "Hey Siri, set the color of the Diamond lamp to Aqua" to restore the iconic Diamond Ore look. You can watch a video showcasing this project here: https://youtu.be/6jC8ryEkgvQ This unique setup is powered by a Raspberry Pi Zero and a Unicorn pHAT, which offers an impressive amount of lighting with exceptional flexibility. I've even incorporated two bonus "colors" that are essentially effect modes: "Hey Siri, set the color of the Diamond lamp to Candlelight" simulates a flickering candle within the lamp. "Hey Siri, set the color of the Diamond lamp to Ocean Boat Blue" generates a slowly undulating blue wave effect. "Hey Siri, set the color of the Diamond lamp to Razzmatazz" creates a cycling rainbow effect. I've shared the software I developed to control the lamp and instructions for installation on GitHub: https://github.com/mkoistinen/unicorn-homebridge-integration This print measures 150mm on each edge.
