ambience.io Notifier

Get notifications from your hardware via ambience.io #IoT messaging service.

This app receives status notifications from ambience.io "Internet-of-Things" messaging service. Please visit http://ambience.io to learn more.

Examples for notifier app usage:

get notified on your mobile device when...

- someone rings your doorbell or your landline phone rings (useful when in the garden etc.)

- washing machine is finished

- water/fire is detected in your house

- movement is detected (PIR-Sensor), family member returns, intruder, pet...

...

There is almost no limits with arduino sensor hardware.

What you need:

- Set up an account on http://ambience.io/sign_up (free)

- (check out some examples on page)

- setup your arduino, src: https://github.com/v1rtual/ambience-io-examples

- create an Input on http://ambience.io/things, grab the key, put into arduino src, compile, install.

- create an Ouput on http://ambience.io/things, grab the key and paste to Notifier App config (please use copy & paste from mobile browser or mail and do not enter 40chars)

- create a direct Event to bind Input + Ouput, http://ambience.io/events
