# homeassistant-livingcolors
this is a home assistant plugin that implements support for the Gen 1 Philips
LivingColors lights. it requires a cc2500 module to handle the communication
with the lamp. i'm using and testing on a raspberry pi 3b+, but with some
technical knowledge it should be portable to other pi's and/or other IoT
computers.
you'll have to use an arduino with
[this](http://www.knutsel.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/a_LiCo_Control_A1.zip)
arduino sketch, and
[this](http://www.knutsel.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/LivingColors.zip)
library to intercept messages from the original remote. more instructions on
how to do this are
[here](http://www.knutsel.org/2010/04/11/using-the-cc2500-arduino-shield/).
you'll only need to use this to get your lamp's address, and verify that your
cc2500 module works by changing your lamp's color.
if this repository gets enough stars i might try to port the arduino sketch
code so the raspberry pi can sniff the remote's messages too, but i'm really
lazy and this is more of a personal janky solution. pr's are welcome!
## used libraries
these are imported using git submodules (clone using `git clone --recursive`):
- [icli](https://github.com/v3io/icli)
- [rpiCC2500](https://github.com/RGassmann/rpiCC2500)
ported libraries and example code:
- [LivingColors](http://www.knutsel.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/LivingColors.zip)
(arduino library)
- [LiCo_Control_A1](http://www.knutsel.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/a_LiCo_Control_A1.zip)
