Duh.
Here's how I did that.
A rough diagram explaining the components.
My bill of materials
- Pi Zero (With USB Wifi dongle and MicroSD card)
- 2 PIR sensors
- 2 momentary push buttons
- 5v 5A power supply
- Strip of Neopixels (150/5meters)
The premise is simple. Detect motion, use math to figure out if it's dark outside, and if so, turn the lights on until there is no motion for about 5 minutes. 2 buttons have been added so you can turn it on and off on demand.
You can find a the code and documentation here: Dhowdy on GitHub
And, of course, a video of the LEDs turning off
Please post any questions below! Enjoy!
