It's nice that you mention because we inspired both our API and architecture to Philips Hue: the REST api is served by both our cloud servers and by the device locally.
The app connects to the unit via wi-fi when you are home, which means you can control the product even if the internet (or our service) is down.
Opensourcing a lot of our stack is part of the plan, we take a lot from OSS and we want to give back.
As far as the hardware, we'll make sure it's a pleasure to hack on, remember that we have to do it every day :)
- brian_cloutier 12y agoIt's a really cool idea and great job on getting this far; I think I might order one. Does that mean both the device and your cloud have apis, or does it mean that an app which communicates only with the device can do the same things as your app which talks to both?
- maghis 12y agoAny 3rd party app can do everything our app can do, the APIs we use internally are the ones that will be publicly available.
- brian_cloutier 12y agoThat sounds incredible, I'm excited!
- ctoscano 12y agoThis is a commitment that inspires cooperation. The quantified self community needs gadgets like these, but also open platforms that encourages tinkering. I just purchased a Luna Developer Pack[1]. [1]http://lunasleep.com/extras/ http://lunasleep.com/extras/
- girvo 12y agoNothing but respect for that. You've pushed me over the edge and I've preordered one now :)
- comboy 12y agoHow much of this do you have working already? I've been using Zeo and miss them a lot, tracking sleep phases or heartrate through this seems very ambitious. Also, some physical switch for microphone could be nice..
- maghis 12y agoWe never record the audio from the mic, we are only capable of detecting loud sounds or a sustained vibration (snoring).
