API enabled LED Light

Components & Accessories LEDs

Noob here. Looking to create a LED light from scratch that can be controlled via an API. Idea is a LED light outside my home office door that is GREEN when I am not on a call (webex teams, microsoft teams) otherwise RED when on a call. I want to leverage webhooks via teams that when I go busy it kicks off an API call to the LED micro-controller which triggers the LED to go red.

I was thinking of using the following

but not sure how or what parts to use to enable wireless calls to the device. What boards would I need to kick this off via an API?

You could use Any bluetooth device to send AT commands to this https://www.sparkfun.com/products/15025, wiring some outputs from it to the 4 I/O pins on the lumidrive https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/lu … okup-guide (input/output section)

You could use this https://www.sparkfun.com/products/14965 as the ‘lamp’ and that should about cover it :smiley:
