My goal is to create a night light at the bottom of my Kitchen Island. I want to be able to control the strip with different light schemes and programs. I will to use VoffCon to handle the commands sent to the project and using the FastLED Library to control the light strip.

The type of the light strip I will be using is APA102 5V addressable and to control the strip I will be using Esp32 development board

Component needed

I will need these items for the project

  • L shaped hooks
  • A thin non-bendable support (underneath the strip)

and these electrical components

  • Esp32 development module
  • ?? Watts 5V Power supply
  • Addressable APA102 5V addressable light strip

Setting the project up under the Kitchen Island

Kitchen Island before project

The project in action

The VoffCon Code

Coding this project should be easy, because I can reuse nearly everything from the Sóley project


The VoffCon control Card:

        // Comming soon
    

VoffCon Control javascript class:

    StripCtrl.voffcon.ctrl
    //comming soon 
    

VoffCon Control html template:

    //comming soon 
    


The Device Code

The program for the device is made up from ? files


ledDeviceServerEsp32.ino is this the main program running on the device

    

StripHelper.h This is the header file for controlling the strip

    

StripHelper.cpp This is the implementation file for controlling the strip
