Nanoleaf collaboration with campus IoT components

In terms of IoT, Nanoleaf is an attractive component of campus interior design. Nanoleaf can work seamlessly with 3rd party IoT products, from light decoration to daily operation. Here are the examples:

Case 1 – Room availability indicator

Changing the color is an essential feature of Nanoleaf. If we collaborate motion sensor with Nanoleaf, we can change the color to represent whether the room is empty. Furthermore, a motion sensor can trigger Nanoleaf to change colors automatically if the sensor detects people in the room. In this case, it does not require anyone to tackle the room in-use sign or lamp when the room is in use, such as the conference room and campus surveillance room.

Case 2 – Weather forecast

It is common to use Python to fetch information from the internet, including weather forecasts. We can preset multiple scenes for Nanoleaf to represent different weather. We can also set a scheduled job to fetch the weather data regularly and then change the sunny or rainy scene according to the analyzed weather data we have received. (Read more)

Case 3 – Nanoleaf as a remote controller

By using the event listener of Nanoleaf, we can determine whether the Nanoleaf has been touched, which can also work as a trigger to control other IoT devices. For example, we can design a scenario to switch on the air-conditioner if we touch the Nanoleaf panel in blue and turn on the light if we touch the Nanoleaf panel in yellow. Nanoleaf can work as a multi-function control panel in an IoT environment.

More than that?

Of course, Nanoleaf can also be a component of our society. For any occasion, we need to display color as an indicator. Nanoleaf can help with the presentation. Nanoleaf is not only a consumer IoT product but also a multi-functional decoration if we integrate Nanoleaf into our coding world.
