Smart Painting Display Board with Adjustable Illumination

Abstract: Common exhibits use painting stands, display panels, and boards to hold artworks, but lack proper illumination, which is vital for enhancing the visual impact of the displayed artworks. This study used a developmental research method. A researcher-made evaluation sheet, validated by field and academic experts, was used to assess the display board. The main objective of the study was to design and develop a smart painting display board with adjustable illumination. The device could mount paintings ranging from small (16” × 20”) to large (36” × 48”) without displacement, maintaining a vertical upright position at a 90-degree angle. The illuminance coverage was adequate across all size categories, indicating that the painting surfaces were fully illuminated and rated “Good.” The average illuminance was 55.6 lux, which closely aligns with the 50 lux recommendation for highly light-sensitive materials. In addition, the system demonstrated responsive performance in both the color adjustment and on/off functions. It demonstrates excellent operational performance, with high stability in both stationary and moving positions. Overall, the device was rated “Very Acceptable” for usability, illumination quality, visual enhancement, and safety.
