I have 4 lamps installed and 2 more in boxes once I've remanufacture a table lamp fixture. The HUE lamps are equivalent to 40W incandescent bulbs and 40W is just a bit too dim for a table lamp also used as a reading lamp. The HUE bulbs are linked via ZigBee and unfortunately Philips has not published that specification. That means any of my other custom lights cannot be connected through the HUE Ethernet/ZigBee bridge which is what the ICS application reported. I'll still have to do my own WiFi or ZigBee app for my own LED lights.
It also reported my Windows Home Server and Logitech security cameras. I'm surprised that I don't get the ip number by itself but then most would probably just use the presentationURL through a web browser. I want to write an app that's portable between the various platforms like iOS and Android (and my iPhone). A simple GET to http://192.168.0.105/api/newdeveloper/groups/0/ returns: { "action": { "on": true, "bri": 101, "hue": 34106, "sat": 133, "xy": [ 0.3453, 0.3517 ], "ct": 198, "effect": "none", "colormode": "xy" }, "lights": [ "1", "2", "3", "4" ], "name": "Lightset 0" } "newdeveloper" is the ID that is registered with the bridge done by sending {"devicetype":"test user","username":"newdeveloper"} and then pressing the link button on the bridge. All in all a very cool product. Does a good job of providing a wide range of lamp colours in the colour temperature range from 2500K to 6500K. Not very good a providing intense saturated RGB colours.
