iLight Display Window —— Light up your life!

This project is aiming to produce a display window that can control led light automatically. No matter how does environment light shed around our object, it can perfectly show the beauty of exhibit.

• Detecting lightness of display window
• Adjusting the luminance of LED and the position to light on
• Monitoring exhibit via camera

• 1 ARC IoT Development Kit
• 1 Base Shiled V2
• 2 Servo Motor
• 1 Ligt Sensor
• 1 Webcam
• 1 Raspberry Pi 3
• 1 Grove Base Hat for Raspberry Pi
• 8 White LED
• 1 Wireless Dual-Band Mini USB Adapter(EW-7811UTC)

• Metaware or ARC GNU Toolset
• Serial port terminal, such as putty, MobaXterm or CuteCom

1. ARC IoTDK

   • Connect to PC via USB port.
   • Connect to RPi via uart port(pin IO0, IO1, GND).
   • Connect to two servos via pin IO2, IO4, GND, VCC.
   • Connect to LED vio pin IO3, GND.
   • Connect to light sensor via pin AD0, GND, VCC.

2. RPi

   • Connect to ARC IoTDK via uart.
   • Connect to PC via USB AP.
   • Connect camera via USB port

• Environment: In door with proper lightness
• On RPi: Install opencv, fswebcam, pyserial. Check ls /dev/video? before using fswebcam command.
• On ARC IoTDK: Set parameters for location to degree transformation.
• Connect Everything as mentioned above.

• First, download the folder ./src/iLight_arc_node. Put it into the folder of /embarc_ops/example/baremetal, then command "make run".
• After that, download the file ./RPi/find_the_darkest-area.py on RPi and run it.
• Camera will start to work and you're all set.
