For example, pressing a key could result in the key lighting up and then slowly fading, or pressing a specific key can cause the rest of the lights on the keyboard to ripple in response. The concept is simple but creating keyboard profiles requires a specific set of software that while powerful, can be confusing and will present a challenge in using the software to its full potential.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/i.imgur.com\/kqHkrOT.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1600\" height=\"894\" \/><\/p>\n<p>My second idea would be creating a prop that uses light, like a wand or staff. The prop would be created of a light sculpting material like paperclay, and would have LEDs wired internally that can be switched on or off, and arranged in order to create a visually interesting design. The resulting piece could be inspired by an already existing design, or a new concept. Finding some specific parts for some designs may be difficult, and it will be important to avoid a design that is\u00a0<em>too<\/em> simple.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com\/236x\/c4\/a5\/e5\/c4a5e559d3c0078a055515389bc34cea.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"236\" height=\"314\" \/><\/p>\n<p>My third idea would be to create a lantern- this could range from a more complex design, to something simple but dynamic, like a lantern that changes color depending on the weather. The lanterns would probably use LEDs as a light source, but in more dynamic versions would most likely be supplemented with an arduino or raspberry pi that can process the data needed.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn.dick-blick.com\/images\/ProjectIdeas\/FloatingLanterns\/right_image.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"307\" height=\"276\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My first project idea was to create a set of RGB keyboard profiles that could react to how a user types.
