Design Elements
- The main purposes of the objest are simple, to create the sound and flicker effect. The interesting parts are that it can control the flicker frequency and has a manual switch that differs from the motor switch which can create the changing visual effect and different ways to control. That could inspire me in different ways.
- The materials are common overall. Basically made of plastic.
It’s really interesting to see how only a few components can make this thing. I am really wondering why they have left so much space open. They could have compacted the system. It may be to dissipate the heat that is generated.
Yeah, I think the overall space is decided by the length of motherboard, bulbs and the amount of batteries. And I agree that it still has extra space inside the box. Maybe because the square structure is easier to shape and control compared with other structures like cylinder and prism.
Your teardown is very interesting, and has a very complete flow chart, let me understand the internal structure through your disassembly!
