Invention Puts Smile On Inventor’s Face
A ShanghaI university student has invented an energy-saving, light-emitting diode lamp which can entertain users by changing its shape and design, officials with East China Normal University announced.
The lamp invented by Yao Yi, an undergraduate student at ECNU’s engineering design department, has won first prize in the Philips Lamp Contest, one of the city’s top awards for lamp designers.
A lack of professional support has hampered Yao from producing and marketing the lamp, he said.
The lamp is made of a round base with more than 40 small LED lights and a balloon with a smiley face acts as the lamp shade.
The balloon can be blown up through a small ball-shaped air inflator, allowing the lamp to change shape and brightness. When the balloon expands, the lamp provides more light.
