3D-printed enclosure for LEDswarm controllers

Primary LanguageOpenSCAD

ledswarm_enclosure

A custom 3D-printed enclosure for LEDswarm controllers, made to be printed out of resin in SLA printers.

This fulfills a similar role as the original bottle blanks used to enclose the electronics of Ghoust controllers, but the design has evolved into a curved transparent enclosure which supports mounting circuit boards and diffusor pipes onto a solid plastic case, holding everything firmly in place, especially regarding the USB-C board-to-board connection between the mainboard and the LED board.

Features

  • Lengthwise PCB slot for a mainboard with board edge (straddle mount) USB-C plug
  • Water-tight sealing using flanges with o-rings
  • Top surface within the diffusor flange to mount the LED peripheral board with M1.7 screws
  • Ceiling projection using a plano-convex lens which is integrated into the top cover
