BlinkLED

This project uses your Android device to control the LED on Androidthings running on Raspbery Pi 3. This is a very simple project and very rough around the edges. It is meant for prototyping a "virtual button" running on the cloud(aka cloud button).

How it works

There are 2 modules for this project.

  1. Things app
  2. Companion app

Companion app is a very simple app running on your Android phone/tablet with a button to control the LED wired to your Things app. The companion uses Firebase as a middleware to interface with the Things app.

Note:

The Things app is controlling Pin 12(BCM 18) on the Raspberry Pi 3. Adjust accordingly for your board. You will also need to

add google-services.json from your Firebase project to $PROJECT_ROOT/app/ and $PROJECT_ROOT/ledswitch/.
