Hi All
We are from a school
We are planing to make a Lantern as per the above video is showing
There are 40 Lanterns ( 32 small Lantern / 8 big Lanterns / two biggest )
Each small Lantern has 4 bulbs ( Individual controlled )
Each big Lantern has two pair four = 8 bulbs
There are total bulbs for small Lantern 128
There are total bulbs for big Lantern 64
Total bulbs 192

We are going to use injection bulbs 12v 1.5W
We are planing to use IFR540N MOSFET
Power supply to be calculated
We need brightness control
we are planing to use Arduino

What we need to know is wiring system to achieve our requirements

Please advice

There are many examples on line of making a light dimmer using an Arduino. You need to calculate the current that the lamp will use and choose an appropriate circuit. You may need to scale up the output switch if you can not find one that will handle the current required. See what you can find and do your calculations. Then let us know then if you need help.
Regards,
Keith

Can we able to wire this bulb as LED matrix then we can control any individual bulbs or is there any other wiring methods
