LUNALUXX, A Clever Lamp With a Levitating Lighting Element
LUNALUXX is an intriguing lamp that provides light through a levitating illuminated disc. The effect is achieved through a combination of electromagnetism and remote phosphor illumination. An electromagnet is hidden in the top of the lamp and a magnet is embedded in the disc, and, when switched on, the disc levitates through magnetic suspension. The disc is also illuminated by an LED in the base of the lamp through remote phosphor technology. LUNALUXX was designed by Netherlands-based Elivatix, and the company is raising funds for the project via a Kickstarter campaign.
