An IoT exploration using the Particle Photon
The system consists of two compoments, the device and the app
The device is a lamp/ornament placed in the house. The front side of the lamp represents the facades of the houses where the members of a family reside. At 18:00, the app will ask the user if they are home through a notification, and if so turn on the light in their 'house'. The members of the family can open the app to see which persons are also home.
The lamp uses a Particle Photon to connect to the internet via Wi-Fi and accept commands through the cloud service provided by the manufacturer.
Planned features:
- Using GeoFences to update the status of each member through the app
