Alexa controlled LED strip lights, using a Particle Photon and Particle.io
Register your Particle Photon with Particle.IO and upload couch-lights.ino Copy your device ID and access token, you'll need to configure the AWS Lambda with them.
Register at https://developer.amazon.com and create a new Alexa Skill. Use couch-lights-alexa-skill-intent.json for the Intent Schema. Create a custom slot type called "COLOUR" and give it some basic colour examples. You don't have add every single colour, Alexa just uses these as examples.
Sample Utterances:
turnOff turn off
turnOff off
turnOn turn on
turnOn on
setColour set color {colour}
setColour set colour {colour}
Create a lambda using couch-lights-lambda.py
The Particle.IO device ID and access token need to be created as environment variables in the lambda.
