I wanted a backlight Raspberry Pi Logo for my work bench at work. I thought it would be fun to have one since we use a lot of Raspberry Pi for random things in my job and I mainly work on them at my bench.
I made this model using Fusion 360. It is powered with a Raspberry Pi Pico W and it only turns on when my work bench light is on.
The following is what I used for this product:
For the shell of the logo - Prusament PLA Prusa Galaxy Black
Leaves Insert - Transparent Green HATCHBOX PLA 3D Printer Filament
Berry Insert - Transparent Red HATCHBOX PLA 3D Printer Filament
1 - 10K ohm Resister
1 - Mini Photocell

Code:
import machine
import neopixel
import utime
np = neopixel.NeoPixel(machine.Pin(0), 8)
photo_pin = machine.ADC(26)
n = np.n
while True:
val = photo_pin.read_u16()
val = val / 100
print(val)
if val > 400:
for i in range(n):
np[i] = (0, 0, 0)
np.write()
utime.sleep(.25)
else:
for i in range(n):
np[i] = (255, 255, 255)
np.write()
utime.sleep(.25)
