Where s the link to the arduino sketch.
It s just right for utility rooms basements closets garages and similar rooms.
In our basement laundry room i replaced the light with a motion sensor fixture like you see on garages or houses.
The philips hue motion sensor turns on your hue smart lights when it detects motion in the room.
With a manual on switch you turn on the lights when entering a room and then when you leave the area the switch shuts off the lights after a preset period.
Not as good an idea for say the bedroom where you might want to leave the lights off as you enter to prevent waking up the baby or spouse.
By mike prospero 07 january 2015 motion and light sensors embedded in the stack alba will automatically turn on this smart led bulb when you enter the room.
Enlarge image apple s home app can trigger light as you come and go and it comes with a couple of nice extra features.
When a sensor detects motion it would change the status of lights but that would be both too complicated to program and not work correct 100 since when you are in the room and lights are on when someone walks in the room lights will turn off and vice versa.
If you re sick of having to find and fumble with the light switch every time you enter a dark room you can use smartthings to automate that process and have the lights turn on automatically when you enter.
