RainCloud Umbrella Minder v2 – (The Easy Version)
The RainCloud Umbrella stand lights up when you need to bring your umbrella with you. Now, it’s easier than ever to build it – no programming required!
LittleBits Hue Lighting Controller
My (Open Source) LittleBits Hue Lighting Controller project leverages the LittleBits Arduino Bit, a small linux computer (like a BeagleBone, Raspberry Pi, or UDOO), and the Philips Hue Hub to easily control the state, brightness, and color of your Hue lightbulbs via a tactile interface.
Introducing the RainCloud Umbrella Minder – Because everything is better when it’s connected to the internet.
I ALWAYS forget to bring my umbrella with me on days when it’s going to rain. So, I built an open source umbrella stand (powered by the new LittleBits CloudBit) that knows the weather and can remind me to take my umbrella with me on my way out the door, if it’s going to rain.
