Core Features for our Project

• Wooden box built with finger joins (Why?)
• Design cut outs on one or more faces of the box to let the light to shine thru
• Use programmable LEDs controlled by a microcontroller
• Include an on/off switch to turn the lights on and off
• Include a rechargeable battery to power the microcontroller that controls the lights

Advanced Features for the future

• Adding a photo resistor that turns the lights on automatically when it is dark
• Add a timer that turns the lights on and off a specific times of the day
• Making it powered by a mini-solar panel instead of LiPo battery
