HueLightDJ

Hue Light DJ using Hue Entertainment API

Build .NET

What is it?

This web app connects to a Philips Hue Bridge over the local network. It uses the Hue Entertainment API to update the lights almost instantly. Hue Light DJ is meant for setups with 20+ Hue Lights. Don't use this app for your personal setup with less than 5 lights. Things might get interesting with 10 lights, you can try it out. There is also a DEMO mode build in so you see how it would look like on a 20+ light setup.

NOTE: Hue Entertainment supports max 10 lights in an Entertainment Group. To get this to work with more than 10 lights, you need to have 1 bridge for every 10 lights.
