In this video I will walk you through the steps I performed to transform a low-cost multicolor floor lamp with open source and to control it remotely from a smartphone, tablet or a computer. The software is based on WLED, a powerful open-source firmware for controlling NeoPixel LEDs like WS2811, WS2812B, TM1809, and more. It supports ESP32 and ESP8266 devices, making it an excellent choice for DIY lighting projects. With a built-in local HTTP server and a sleek, modern interface, WLED allows you to manage your LEDs effortlessly from any device on the same network. It also works flawlessly with Home Assistant, enabling smart home automation, voice control, and advanced lighting effects. WLED supports both LED strips and 2D matrices. The demonstration features the open-source ANAVI Miracle Emitter, powered by the XIAO ESP32C3 RISC-V microcontroller. I replaced with it the original hardware that came with a remote control and CR2032 battery.
ANAVI Miracle Emitter is an open-source IoT development board designed for NeoPixel LED control, also supporting various I2C sensors and a mini OLED display. I designed the printed circuit board (PCB) using the popular open-source software KiCad. Soon, it will be available through a crowdfunding campaign on Crowd Supply: crowdsupply.com/anavi-technology/anavi-miracle-emitter
