Index your bookshelf

Having a faithful digital replica of the library is a necessary step for the proper functioning of the system.

There are 3 possibilities to reference the contents of the library in the lighting system: 1. A form: it is in the web application: you must enter the elements that characterize the object "book": title, author, publisher, number of pages. 2. Use the ISBN code: the mobile application includes a scanner of the ISBN code of the book to be indexed, which allows it to be saved automatically. 3. AI: to index a library more quickly, the web application allows you to analyze the content of the photos of your shelves by an AI. The books are automatically recognized and added in the order in which they appear in the photo.

Organize books

Once registered in the digital library, the order of the books is important to calculate their position in the lighting system.

Once the objects are indexed, or imported into the application, they are organized according to their position on the real support. The web application contains an interface that allows you to modify the position of a work in the index of shelf #1, by "drag and drop". The web interface also allows you to monitor all the location requests made by mobile applications or browsers.

Locate / Share books

Thanks to the positions of the books saved in the index, it is possible to display their position with the lighting system.

The mobile application allows you to light up books in 3 ways: 1. By authors or categories: the application allows you to locate books by author or by category: at this level, when an author or category is selected, all the books concerned light up on the shelf. 2. Among the authors / or categories: in the list, click on the name of an author or category to display and light up the books concerned individually. 3. To search for a specific book, the application includes a keyword search engine. It is also possible to send requests for locating books remotely via the web application.

Learn to code

Create lighting effects and learn to code at the same time.

The web application contains an interface that allows generating light effects that can be sent to the lighting system. When not used to light books, the lighting system turns into a decorative element! The programming interface of the web application uses the same instruction generation system as the well-known "Scratch" (https://scratch.mit.edu/).
