Windows Phone 7 App – HAWP7

Its not taken long but I’ve written my first app, called at the moment a very boring name of HAWP7 the app allows me to turn on or off lights in my house.. It is actually is part of a wider system that I am working on which is being called HA (my creative name thinking skills need working on). HA or Home Automation System is program I am working on with Andy over at A-Jackson.co.uk. The idea is that HA will be able to control all aspects of home automation in our homes, currently still in the early days we have been developing it along side our final year projects, at times its taken over as it seems much more interesting than our projects do.

So having just got a Windows Phone I’d thought I’d write a client to interface with the HA Server I have running on my WHS, so after a little coding help as I’m not a programmer but seem to be getting quite good I came up with this.. A client that allows me to turn on or off all the x10 devices I have, which isn’t many to be honest but I’ve nabbed some more of ebay! The app shows via the light bulb image what lights are currently on and once pressed the devices are turned off via HAServer on the WHS and the list of devices updated.
