[**Please watch the demo.**](https://youtu.be/R3JeVooaytU)\n\n*ambibulb* controls the color of RC lights based on the dominant color of an image on your screen. This can enhance your viewing experience or just make your party more colorful 🌈.\n\n### HARDWARE\n* Raspberry PI (tested on 3B+)\n* HDMI output (TV, projector, display)\n* RGBW LED light bulb with IR remote control (currently supported model: OSRAM LED STAR+)\n* IR transmitter (tested on KY-005)\n* IR receiver(tested on KY-022, optional)\n* wiring\n\n### SOFTWARE DEPENDENCIES\n* Raspberry Pi OS (10 buster, or any other RPI compatible OS)\n* LIRC (Linux Infrared Remote Control)\n\n### SETUP AND INSTALLATION\n1. Install Raspberry PI OS on your [SD card](https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/installation/installing-images/)\n2. Install lirc on your RPI:\n```\n$ apt install lirc\n```\n3. Configure lirc, connect and configure IR transmitter, [guideline]( https://gist.github.com/prasanthj/c15a5298eb682bde34961c322c95378b)\n4. Install ambibulb. There are 2 ways, either build, install and configure locally:\n```\n $ wget https://github.com/bespsm/ambibulb/archive/main.zip\n $ unzip main.zip\n $ cd ambibulb-main\n $ make install\n $ make configure\n```\nor using pip (recommended in venv) and configure locally:\n```\n $ python3 -m pip install ambibulb\n $ wget https://github.com/bespsm/ambibulb/archive/main.zip\n $ unzip main.zip\n $ cd ambibulb-main\n $ make configure\n ```\n\n### COMMANDS\nStart ambibulb service:\n ```\n $ systemctl --user start ambibulb.service\n ```\nStop ambibulb service:\n ```\n $ systemctl --user stop ambibulb.service\n ```\nCheck ambibulb service current status, two options:\n ```\n $ systemctl --user status ambibulb.service\n $ journalctl -f\n ```\nConfigure/change the settings of ambibulb service:\n ```\n $ ambibulb-config\n ```\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fbespsm%2Fambibulb","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fbespsm%2Fambibulb","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fbespsm%2Fambibulb/lists"}
