Question on: Particle

I was thinking, except of using two Photons, using a RasPi in combination with an Electron(?) in my furniture.

The floor of the Chair measures weight, the table measures inclination, vibration and light, and the table controls the lamp and the "pomodoro stripe" (see website for understanding). I refrained from having long cables between the two units, thus WiFi. But I figure, BTLE might be more useful, and some more computing power might also help, especially when the Chair stands somewhere exposed and I'd like to see who's sitting in it and doing what (mischief prevention), but also user-dependent settings would be cool, supported by OpenCV or something.

Hey Andy – sounds like a fun project! While I could answer here, I think you'll find a lot more engagement on our community forums at community.particle.io – tag me (@will) there and I'll follow up!

Question on: Particle

How to reduce lagging?

I'm sometimes having a lag happening, for example, I have connected a LED strip with a 144ms timer to blink, sometimes it just freezes up or falls behind for a second or so. Is this library, my code, or hardware related?

Hey Karlis – could be a number of things depending on if you're using threading or what libraries you're using to drive the LED strip. You're likely to get lots of engagement if you post at community.particle.io as there are tons of folks there who have built something similar and would be willing to share their experience.
