LIFX YouTube Channel – 2.27.18
The story of how LIFX began is this weeks episode of State of Electronics. Three guys (Phil Bosua, Andy Gelme and John Bosua) got together at Hack Melbourne (CCHS) http://www.hackmelbourne.org and prototyped what would become a wifi controlled light bulb. At that time, it hadn’t been done before. A timely confluence of things allowed this to happen – smartphones, apps, cheap & efficient LED’s, wifi modules and an idea.
