Solpix

Solpix is a modular lighting system for Geodesic Temple.

Each Solpix is a wireless stand-alone light, an individual pixel.
Solpixes communicate with each other wirelessly to create a unified presentation.
The purpose of Solpix is to eliminate the (power and data) wiring needed to light Geodesic_Temple#Asterix_.28Burning_Man_2015.29 using solar power and wireless communication.

Black: solar panel
Yellow: LED
Red: internal components (batteries, charge controller, electronics, etc.)
Grey: metal or other strong material

Dimensions: Since Solpix is designed to be installed on a 2x4 stud (actual dimensions 1.5 in. x 3.5 in.), at least one of its dimensions should be < 3.5 in. (i.e. 3 in.). The thickness of Solpix will be determined by the need for space of internal components.
Installation: Solpix could be secured to a 2x4 wooden stud with zip ties or similar running on both sides of the base or with velcro attached under the base. The modular design of Solpix allows for flexible Geodesic Temple light layout. There could be one or several Solpixes on one or both sides of each 2x4.
