App Controllable Intelligent Desk Lamp System

抄録

In this paper, we propose a FPGA based intelligent desk lamp system with a camera, two servo motors and LEDs. The proposed lamp system can automatically trace a moving book with a red bookmark by pan and tilt control to provide sufficient illumination. Thus, the user can read book with enough light for eye caring. The architecture of the system includes a vision system and a servo-motor control system. The image processing module inside the system can obtain the book’s position data. According to the book’s position data, two servo motors automatically adjust the pan and tilt angles of the desk lamp. The adjustable ranges for pan and tilt angles are 40° and 30°, respectively. Additionally, an App is designed and allows the user to remotely control the lamp by using a smartphone. All the processing modules are implemented on Altera DE0-Nano kit with Cyclone® IV EP4CE22F17C6N FPGA with Verilog HDL.
