A few guys on our forums have been working on utilizing the O2 Joggler as a house automation controller. With some hacking they’ve put together a system that allows the Joggler to send as well as get xAP packets, potentially enabling it to manage almost any type of wise house system whilst showing online updates of state caller ID, temperature, light condition etc on its display. Here’s the latest from Kevin…
“I’m about to release beta 3. primary difference will be that the interface can be personalized (no requirement for Flash) via the configuration file. buttons can be laid out in a grid size of your own option upto 10×10, although they can ended up being little as well as unuseable on the Joggler if you utilize as well many. The screenshot below is baseda around a 10×5 grid.
Every button can be individually positioned as well as sized including overlaps as well as you can likewise tons your own button styles (SWF produced in Flash). You can add a background picture that you might utilize as a template for buttons – e.g. a floorplan or manage panel. A few additional button modes as well as the security mode has been enhanced, plus there is support for xAP BSC text devices.
I do hope to enhance the button corner scaling as well as likewise the level gadget (slider) graphic in addition to adding some additional icons. several pages / popups will be beta 4+. likewise work is underway to get an improved xAP hub running on the Joggler which would then obviate the requirement for iServer. Some may prefer to stay with iServer as it offers filtering advantages to the Joggler as well as likewise if you utilize WiFi since it utilizes TCP rather than UDP.”
