# MTA Smart Table Lamp 🚊🏮

## 🚀 About

Make your own MTA Table Lamp for much cheaper and adjustable whitebalance based on the sun using an ESP32!



  

  



## ⚙️ Hardware

### 🖨️ 3D Models (CAD stl files)

- The following thingiverse contains 3 STL files.

    - ``mta-base-lid.stl`` can be printed with 15-30% infill. 

        - You could fill it with sand or metal BBs for weight. 

	- ``mta-base.stl`` can be printed with 15-30% infill. 

        - This is where you will double side tape onto the central tower.

	- ``mta-lamp-shade.stl`` is where you will print in slow/delicate setting. You should set the wall thickness layer between 2-4.

### 🪛 Hardwares involved

- Neopixel hw160 or any rgb strip (but may require different transistors)

- ESP32 (using Lilygo ESP32 TTGO in this case)

- Breadboard

- Male-to-male header cables

- Button/SDPT switch

### ᯤ Circuit diagram

- Referring to the ``rgb_led_circuit.fzz`` or the following screenshot, route the hardware as shown above.



## 🖥️ Software

### 📝 Instructions

- Lamp will change white balance based on the nautical twilights, civil twilights, sunrise/sunset, and solar noon. 

- Switch will turn the lamp on and off.

### 📋 Instructions to run arduino code

1) Using the [Arduino IDE](https://www.arduino.cc/en/software), open the respective ``.ino`` file

2) Install [TTGO T-display driver](https://github.com/Xinyuan-LilyGO/TTGO-T-Display)

3) Assign Arduino IDE port to the one that Lilygo TTGO is connected to

4) Install TFT_eSPI library (display library)

	- Under Arduino IDE/tools/library_manager, search ``tft_espi``

	- Navigate to the library, e.g. Documents/Arduino/libraries/tft_espi

	- Open up the file Arduino/libraries/TFT_eSPI/User_Setup_Select.h

	- comment out the line ``#include ``

	- uncomment out the line include ``>``

	- note - commenting out means adding ``//`` in front of the line, to uncomment, remove ``//`` but don’t remove the ``#`` sign

5) Install [Adafruit Neopixel](https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_NeoPixel) under ``Arduino IDE/Library Manager``

6) Install [SPI](https://docs.arduino.cc/language-reference/en/functions/communication/SPI/) under ``Arduino IDE/Library Manager``

7) Go to ``sunrise-sunset-n-current-time.ino`` and change the wifi name and password to your own wifi name and password.

8) Compile and upload the code from the ``.ino`` to your Lilygo TTGO

9) Money 💸💸💸
