community meant that the studentsfelt a genuine understanding of the impacts of their work. During the initial brainstorming andliterature search, the students researched other low-resource lamps. Inspiration for the initialdesign came from the University of New South Wales’ Uninterruptible Surgical Lamp, but thestudents had to make design decisions tailored to the needs and resources of SPHMMC [5].Lighting SystemThe design for the surgical lamp’s lighting system had to improve on the existing halogen bulblighting at SPHMMC. LED lighting was the clear choice for the team’s design - LED bulbs arecheaper, more energy efficient, and longer-lasting than halogen lighting. Additionally, theygenerate less waste heat than halogen bulbs, making this option
