Animation-Inspired LED Lamps

This Gadget is Inspired By Pixar's Iconic Desk Lamp Character

— March 16, 2022 — Tech
The Luxo USB LED lamp is an innovative new 3D-printed lamp that isn't merely designed to offer a high level of illumination when placed on your desk, but is also designed to put a bright smile on your face due to the fact that its appearance is inspired by the animated desk lamp character found in Pixar offerings.

This particular lamp was 3D-printed by none other than Greece-based Hard Craft. With an articulated mechanism similar to the one found in the iconic Pixar lamp, not to mention an LED lightbulb that promises lighting that is comfortable and not harsh, this particular lamp strikes a fine balance between functionality and Pixar-inspired aesthetics. It is available for just over $65.
