A wake-up virtual device to simulate the sunrise by using a dimmer

Guest shared this idea 11 years ago
Under Consideration

It could be nice to have a virtual device that simulate the sunrise by using a dimmer.

The user would be able to set-up wake-up time (week programmation would be nice)

There are a lot of lights sold on the market that do this task. Here we have all the devices available to do it for "free" with the zipabox ;): Lights + dimmer + a smart box


It could be nice to find an idea to have music, may be with the iphone or something else?

Lamp action set value 10

Zipato has to make a new option in the rules:


go from ??% to ??% in ??sec. Example: GO FROM 5% TO 65% IN 70SEC.


This is what's missing in the RGB option i tink.

There was an issue with the WAIT command recently so check again.

Your setup should work fine.


For music maybe you could use the spotify API to start a song / playlist on a device: https://developer.spotify.com/technologies/widgets/spotify-play-button/
