The Gazebo Sunlight, autonomous & connected gazebo

 The Gazebo Sunlight is a new type of solar tracker which offers more than energy production since it’s also a space for outdoor living. Energetically self-sufficient, it supplies different integrated elements of comfort, such as a fridge, hotspots wifi, music, etc. The solar tracking system allows a shaded area all day and an evolutionary vision of the landscape. 
 
The particular design of the product allow to improve outdoor living comfort by creating a space dedicated to relaxation and wellness while preserving environment.
The Gazebo Sunlight was the subject of my graduation internship realized in the company Soitec.
 
The challenge was to propose a product which integrates a technology currently used for energy production and render this technology playful while developing new uses.

How does it work ;
Model , scale 1:12 produced by 3D printing (laser sintering (SLS)) and hand-painted.
