LED + Bookmark + Customize -----> Initial Concept

This is my concept for my prototyping an interactive experience course, at Srishti School of Art, Design & Technology.

Using the Arduino board, a couple of wires, breadboards, resistors, sensors and LED's and a whole bunch of code - I hope to create a prototype of a LED bookmark - a simple flat ruler like object with an LED at the head of it, that can be hooked onto the book, and give one sufficient amount of light to read a book without disturbing the others around. Using the sensor is just to increase the interactivity between this object and the user - and creating an almost customized space for the user.

Using a ribbon touch sensor, placing it along the vertical of the ruler like object should be able to control the intensity of the LED, from a range of "switched off" to "brightest the LED could reach".

Let's hope this works out!
