Tech Fair Thoughts

The two ideas that my tech fair buddy and I came up with and decided to investigate further are a Pinhole camera and a (LED) mood lamp. Both projects include quite a few materials and focusing. The reason for my peer and I choosing these two projects is because making the camera was original and different than any other camera pupils created in the past. We also chose the mood lamp because nobody created it before and once it would be created it would be reuseable. Also creating the mood lamp would help expand our knowledge about circuits, motherboards and LED lights.
My partner and I would have to put a lot of time into either of these projects; both of the projects/ideas require some focus and knowledge. I assume that if we make the mood lamp (or camera) they would both take a lot of time to create and quite a few small pieces of important materials. The output of camera would have be more complicated than mood lamp because for the camera we would have to figure out how to import the pictures and be able to review them (during the tech fair). While with the mood lamp all we have to do is just change the code we have to insert to change the color of the mood lamp.
