Lightsome Puppy
The project's purpose is to build an Office lampshade for kids with animal shapes.
The problem is male, something the children love and is like a friend to them, so they will not be afraid of it a never crash it.
I care about this because I see how much my little girl loves light sources and animal toys.
I loved the idea so much that we tried to make it in the hands-on activity in week one
It will work when the light of the child's Room is off; The Lightsome Puppy will turn its rays on the roof ceil and gradually fade out.
( to give the child a chance to sleep slowly and get used to the darkness ) besides the primary function of basic lighting.

2- Describe the project idea and general features. How would it work?
The project is a lampshade with an animal shape.
Lighting on two different sides you can change the angle of the lighting.
Lighting the ceiling of the kid's room with funny shapes like stars lighting the office for night reading
The animal can be set or up (the kid can change the animal's position)
It works by electricity and stands on the surface of a table or office (anything besides the kid's bed)
You can turn on or off it the change button – and control the power of lighting with another adaptor.
You can also change the pattern of lighting by changing the shapes.

6- Categorize your project’s User Features into: Minimum, Complete, and Nice-to-have features. List the required action and input components per feature.
6- Categorize your project’s User Features into: Minimum, Complete, and Nice-to-have features. List the required action and input components per feature.
Minimum Features: are the least amount of features that would demonstrate the coverage of all the technical modules and their complete integration
Complete Features: are the set of features that will complete your original project objective and vision
Nice-to-have Features: are the extra set of features that will make the project cooler, yet they need extra time, effort, and/or resources to finish
Minimum User Features
Action: Lamp lights when the user presses the switcher on.
Sensing:
User Input: ON/OFF Button
Complete User Features
Action: The lamp lights automatically when the lights get off
Sensing: lights - BY LDR sensor
User Input: gets the room lights off
Nice-to-have User Features
....
Action: The lamp lights fade out automatically in 15 min.
Sensing: lights - BY LDR sensor
User Input: gets the room lights off
