Something that could be wired or wireless and placed by a window or maybe outside your home that has an unobstructed view of the sky.
Things it could be used for:
True sunrise / sunset by your environment.
If it's overcast outside, then your lighting will reflect that.
Partly cloudy could be simulated too with passing clouds.
I think this would be an easy build, using some type of light sensor that would return 10 for the highest amount of light (Noon on a sunny day) down to 0 on a non-moonlit night and work our light programming of those numbers in between.
I know we are trying to replicate nature in our tank and I think this is one of the best ways to simulate whats going on outside, inside.
Does anyone at Neptune feel that this is possible, I'm sure I'm not the first to think of this.
Thanks,
Matt
