We’ve just announced Holiday by MooresCloud, our casual lighting solution for the Christmas Tree or anywhere else you want some fun, beautiful, connected, programmable lights — with a full REST API!

Holiday hardware features (incomplete list):

  • 7 metre string of 50 ‘globes’ in opalescent diffusing shell
  • 1 meter runner, 6 meters of lights with 120mm spacings
  • Globes are full 24-bit color capable
  • Globes are individually addressable
  • Globes are removable and replaceable in case of failures!
  • iMX233 CPU running Arch Linux @ 454 Mhz
  • 64 MB DDR RAM
  • 2 GB microSD – easily accessible & replaceable. 
  • Atmel atmega328 microcontroller (drives the globes)
  • 3 buttons (mode / plus / minus)
  • USB with 802.11n WiFi adapter
  • Controller board is fully open hardware
  • 3A 5 VDC switching power supply (internationally compatible)

That’s very brief I know.  We’ll go into full details – and schematics and PCB layouts for the open hardware components. Because you know us – we love to share.

More soon.
