Hi,
I received my V2 Pucks today (thanks Gordon, for sending out so quickly) and I thought I'd have a little play with the new functionality.
I have been using a motion sensor above the cat flap to monitor our cat going in and out; the problem is I have no way of deducing which direction he's going!
So I thought I'd stick one of the Pucks on the flap and use the accelerometer to determine whether he's going in or out. It's all coded in, sends a notification much like the original sensor and works a treat!
It still needs to be cat tested; I hope he still fits through and I hope he doesn't pull it off! I've had to move other Pucks out of his reach as he enjoys batting them around!
Just a note: Puck.accel() didn't work with 2v05 shipped on the device. Upgraded to cutting edge build and worked fine - probably known by Gordon, but just in case anyone else has trouble! Puck.accelOn and event worked fine though.
Just thought I'd share!
Thanks!
Nic
