LuxBase – Open-Source Smart Lighting Control System

In plain words

LuxBase is an open-source framework and server for controlling analog LED strips using Arduino hardware and a NEXT LED Strip Driver Module. It is designed for developers and makers who want to build smart lighting systems. The system provides a structured approach to managing LED strip behavior through software control, making it suitable for custom lighting projects and home automation implementations.

  Browser-based light pollution simulator using real photometric dataMay 2026 · iesna.eu · ▲44

  Hi HN — author here. iesna.eu is a browser-based ecosystem for working with photometric data: parsing standard luminaire files (LDT/EULUMDAT, IES LM-63, Oxytech, ATLA-S001), running design calculations against EN 13201 / ANSI/IES RP-8 / CJJ 45 / IES-IDA MLO, and (the part I most want to show off here) rendering real urban scenes in Bevy with the photometric data driving actual streetlight behavior, including sky-glow contribution. The Skyglow Analysis demo loads a real LDT file into a Bevy scene (Khronos Bistro test asset). The luminaire's intensity distribution…

  Talanoa▲346

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself.
