RGB Led strip controller

This project is an RGB led strip controller powered by an ESP8266 (NodeMCU) and uses a Light-dependent Resistor (LDR) to turn on and of the strip depending on room luminosity.

Color, light trigger value and operation mode is full controlled via HTTP requests

Power in is 12V DC.

To control the strip via HTTP you must set your SSID and PASSWORD in the controller code.

Materials

  • NodeMCU (ESP8266)
  • 12V RGB Led strip
  • 12V power adapter
  • L7805V Voltage regulator
  • ULN2003A IC
  • LDR module or LDR resistor + 10kΩ resistor

Endpoints

/on

Set mode to always on

/off

Set mode to always off

/auto

Set mode to always auto (on if light is less than lightTriggerValue). Mode by default

/color?color=[rrggbb]

Set strip color to color. color is and rrggbb hex value without #. By default is ffffff

/light-trigger?value=[number]

Set the light trigger value, by default is 900

/status

Return status

All endpoints return status after execute the command

{ mode: "off", status: true, color: "ffffff", sensor-value: 1024, sensor-status: false, light-trigger-value: 900 }
