Digital Fabrication | Fusion360 + 3D Print + Laser Cut

📌 Overview

Mornova is a smart wake-up lamp composed of three modular parts:

• A laser-engraved swappable light sheet
• A layered laser-cut acrylic stand
• A 3D-printed structural core that houses a Raspberry Pi, sensors, and internal wiring

This case study focuses on Iteration 2 and 3 of the 3D-printed structure, where I refined the geometry for printability, aesthetic integration, and functional use—especially regarding support material and assembly.

🔁 Iteration 2: First 3D Print Attempt

🎯 Design Goal

• Integrate all electronics into one clean structure
• Allow wiring to pass through without external clutter
• Match the stand’s geometry for proper fit

🛠️ Process

• Modeled internal channels and mounting geometry
• Printed with PLA; included vertical hollows and overhangs
• Required dense internal supports
