LED lighting system with built-in WiFi module for adjustment via the Internet #DigInfo

[IcebertGproductions]

First net led light system via net my ass!

Disco "Sparta" in Montenegro got these for almost 5 years!

They showed us how they control it:

1.Via pc (from program)

2.Connect via WI-FI or Blue tooth (Only with Android phone)

3.Via net

Don't target businesses target consumers I want to see this in home depot.

[JJJinez]

They are using Windows XP!

[a7md122]

@JJJinez best OS ever :D

[EverythingOtaku]

AMAZING!!!

[007Ohmz]

This is nothing new... there's already a number of companies that produce home automation products, kits, and of course, LED lighting.

[armack2011]

VERY IMPRESSIVE!!!!!

[Surfurplex]

Didn't Sheldon do this?

[egdelial]

This is excellent video how to save energy. Very good job.

[MeSoFinE0007]

i see new pranks for the future kids . . .

[M000tube]

this will be expensively useless

[tyrzi]

oh... NOW they created it?

[magmasceptre]

use it to screw with friends in your house



[XzongetsuX]

smart idea guys!

[ProtonRocket]

This is not something "new-and-discovery-stuff"... they just trying to aggregate value to a small thing. I've seen the same idea here, with house automation. I'm starting to think they're not as far than I thought. You can see that even if it's not a big thing they still know very well how to do it (in terms of reseraching and methodology)

[cartuner555]

X10 is definitely far ahead of this.

[Arthurb06]

i fail to see the point?

[peppeddu]

The price and the proprietary system makes it a no-no

IMHO it's better to do with X10. You can automate the entire house including the Internet gateway and the iPhone app for the price of just one LED tube

And you can probably use the dimmer module to control the brightness of the LED light bulbs, but until those come down to a realistic price, it's way cheaper to use neon light bulbs.

Last time I've checked it takes three years just to get even with the investment of an LED bulb vs the neon.

awaniwaniwani USELESS

[SyedElCid]

Windows XP still rules. Fantastic.

[UncleKennybobs]

1. That is far too expensive for a light!

2. Why bother with an already saturated Wifi when PLC is available?

Very wasteful.

[ProtonRocket]

@UncleKennybobs japanese likes to complicate things. :/

[MurdocLC]

Yeah this isn't new. But I guess this is the first for the wide consumer market.

[seklay]

nice.. but a friend of mine made something like this by himself for his room and he is using it since like 3 years... its so new...

[jizzlipps]

Nothing new here - Just need to check out Crestron's web site. Even here in Vietnam we implement this solution.

[2dFXman]

Hacking neighbors lights has never been so fun

[animalnt]

We already have this technology, why not move a step further instead of uselessly applying it. The future has to be discovered, not imitated, but it would have been a good idea 10 years ago.

[jimmyyu1112]

@animalnt Well as old as it maybe, not many house actually install them. Why? Because there isn't enough company doing it and I don even know where to get it.

[Loafy23]

@animalnt And 10 years ago it would've been prohibitively expensive because neither the cost of the LEDs or the WiFi was low enough at that time to make a product that many could afford. There's also the fact that there weren't many/any smartphones 10yrs ago. The market saturation of these technologies make this a product for now and the near future, not 10yrs ago. This may be using older tech in the sense of when it was created but this is definitely a product for now.

[animalnt]

@Loafy23 That's the same situation a taxi driver had when he wanted to put plasma screen advertisement in every taxi, but they were too expensive several years ago. Now that he can afford this venture, advertisers want the best LED screens for their advertisement and not the old plasma screens. Do we have to sell the same shit, different casing in order for it to become integrated? Governments should do what they do with cars above a certain age, replace the engine of the car for free.

[JekktSpecial]

@animalnt It takes several years for technology to reach mass.

[mam16cm]

@animalnt i think u mean 'invent' not 'discover'. And what you invent trough all your life? good ideas don't grow on trees, but we still live in time when scientific knowledge doubles every 5-7 years, and its faster than ever before, so don't be so ignorant.

[animalnt]

@mam16cm i dont think you understand the definitions, no i would rather not invent a light-switch that requires me to access my iphone, because light switches already exist... I think you are having trouble understanding my comment, unless you are purposely being cynical to outline a debate. If people thought the way you do, we would still be shovelling coal into steam engines, but it's ok because we can control the steam train with our iphones derrp. XD

[mam16cm]

@animalnt you can discover new land and forgotten technology, if you make something new its inventing... so you thing LED is to old technology? and what you want to use instead? cold fusion rectors? Thomas Edison American proud don't invent anything new he based on 41y of work of another peoples. Be realistic since don't do big steps every year.

[animalnt]

@mam16cm It's old as soon as you discover it.

[abkleo]

@animalnt Why Move any step further when there's such a tech but no one is using it at all???

[animalnt]

@abkleo I dont even know how to answer this, turning off a light with an ipod, bluetooth and wifi is inefficient, each component on its own has a bigger purpose, it's like a professor working as a janitor. Now to think of something more efficient and future-friendly, why not a light that turns on when your in the room? turns off when you leave? It really isnt hard guys.

[mvenom101]

Unless you plan on making the entirety of the world a wifi hotspot i dont think that would be viable for streetlights...

Cool idea for homes though.
