lucaIO12167yHave you uploaded source code to github or anywhere else? Because I'm planning a similar project.
-
lucaIO12167yI just read this polyphasic sleep tag, are you a polyphasic sleeper? I think this so just so cool, I always wanted to reduce my sleeping time. But damn school has times that don't work for multiple sleep cycles.

fuzzyT1967yI love to get my hands dirty with the nodeMCU although I don't think working against natural sleeping patterns is a good idea long term.
Try to hook up your node with mqtt, so you can set your clock comfortably via a simple one line command over WiFi.
Why? just because you can 😂 -
GeaRSiX6427yHaha I love the idea of waking yourself up with a blinding light.
I should try something like that, linking it up with a coffee machine is a good idea too - give yourself a reason to stay out of bed after the alarms off. -
Mitiko62067y@lucaIO I'm not a polyphasic sleeper, but I'm thinking about it, for March. You don't really have to do 6 times 20 minutes, you can also design one that suits your school time; make it so you get most sleep before and after school 😀; Btw do you think anyone would have a use for the source code? Can upload it if you want it.
@fuzzyT I am currently using a bash one-liner to start 60 seconds of flashing. I didn't have much time to explore new services; Bought 3 NodeMCU's, didn't know what to do with them. Why? Just because I can (it was really home automation, though)
@GeaRSiX You should definely try it out! You can probably also add another lamp, because (at least for me) I never tend to sleep on one side. -
Rikan2837yWifi - a must have for every alarm clock. But it also needs Bluetooth. Everything is better with Bluetooth
-
lucaIO12167y@Mitiko I would have use for the source code if you have used deepsleep function. Because this is where it gets complicated.
I wanted to try out the Everyman or a triphasic cycle but as far as I know should every phase be equally timed. But I'm not sure. Please tell me if your polyphasic sleep experiment works, I'm very curious.

It's also my only finished project so far: an alarm clock
Made for ~2 days, because I couldn't get up on time.
Currently flashes light into your eyes and buzzes with a piezo crystal and has wifi
