“Shade-lit” provides illumination, free of any mechanical operation and just by using the easy and intuitive act of putting a cloth on a stick. Gently drape a fabric over “Shade-lit” and the portion, covered by fabric gives off light. A sensor detects the cloth and turns on the covered LEDs. The covering cloth acts both as a switch and a lamp shade. By applying different kinds of fabric, anyone can create various beautiful lightings and freely discover fun ways to use “Shade-lit”.
