Overview

Vision

The goal of this project is to implement an LED lighting system similar to Philips Hue or ViVi. The key difference in this project compared to the previously mentioned ones that it has a really generic effect description which makes it possible to create very unique lighting effects instead of choosing one from a short, not frequently updated, not so customizable list.

It also has a web application which makes the users able to create these effects using a pretty interface and also to store them for later use and share them with other users. This makes it possible to build a community that creates the most awesome LED lighting effects together.

Components

The project consists of a hardware and a software component as well. You can read more about the hardware component here: Hardware
