Using Android device as DMX touch panel for apartment roof terrace LEDs

Roof terraces are one of the dreams of Modernist architecture and today we are talking about decorating roof terrace in high tech architectural style. The terrace offers a magnificent view of the city and the park. The city lights produce a soothing effect that is so badly needed after a long day at work. But how to make the terrace lighting more alive and aligned with our mood?

We used high brightness LED strip (individually controlled) lights hidden under the eaves. During the day, the lights are off and are not visible. When the night comes, the entire perimeter of the terrace is softly lit with controllable LED’s, creating a cozy ambiance.

You can use a computer or Wi-Fi enabled phone to control the lighting. Alternatively, you can hang a Tablet PC on a wall to control the lighting when your computer or phone is not around.
