Funded! This project successfully raised its funding goal on August 3, 2012.

$150K are worth both an ACCELEROMETER & NOISE SENSOR

Update #9 · Jul 29, 2012 · 15 comments

Once again you guys did it!!

Thank you all as we have reached our second GOAL! $ 150K!!

Many of you indicated that you will prefer the noise sensor rather than the Accelerometer, but because you deserve more, and because we believe that both will be extremely useful to you… all L8 Smartlight devices will integrate both, the ACCELEROMETER and the NOISE SENSOR!! 

Furthermore, we anticipated some days ago the inclusion of Bluetooth 4.0. 

And finally, it is time to talk about the design. At the end of the day, you made our dream came true with your constant support, feedback and new and innovative ideas, so we felt that in this particular case you should be the decision maker. We have collected feedback and reviews of all kinds, and most of you opted and prefer the original retro design, therefore, we are glad to anticipate that the final design will have a retro design but... with some great improvements so, stay tuned!! this design will facilitate stack them and also create larger animations by joining multiple L8s either on a row or in a matrix position. 

We have no words to express the humongous gratitude we feel. Thank you again so much for your support!!!

You are the L8's core!

      I'm excited to have the ambient noise sensor. I plan on putting two L8's behind my TV and having light reactions to whatever is watching. Should also be awesome with music. :-)

      Fantastic! When you say you are going for the retro design, will you be including elements from the Michael Steinheiser design, as that was retro and awesome (if you could decrease the width of the surround to make them stackable with no change in LED distance) as was shown on your facebook page?

      That is fabulous! I'm an audiologist, and am looking at this device's capabilities for deaf/ hearing-impaired individuals and for excessive noise signaling, so I'm really thrilled it will have this sensor!

      Any details on the specs? dB weighting?
