This is a remix of the "On Air Sign [IoT] for Twitch" by Adafruit.https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1506862
Note: The sign itself is not remixed, just the code. Details for building the sign can be found on Adafruit's site:https://learn.adafruit.com/3d-printed-iot-on-air-sign-for-twitch/overview
I work from home and wanted a sign that would let my family know if I was in a meeting.
This project uses two buttons/switches to set different colors. For example, one turns the sign Yellow and tells my family that I'm busy but can be disturbed if necessary.
The other button turns the sign red and says "I'm in a meeting, be quiet."
The project uses two Adafruit Huzzah Feathers with ESP8266, the 3D-Printed On-Air sign, a 144 NeoPixel strip, an indicator LED (on the controller), and two inputs (button/switch). In my case, I used an old toy that I had lying around (Saint's Row iV panic button toy).
The Huzzah boards use WiFi in a server/client configuration with static IP addresses. Make sure to edit the necessary IP information in the INO files.
Fritzing schematics and INO files are below. Enjoy!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Win6dKcgGWw
