The Stubborn and Sleepy Housemate

Made by dvaglia

Found in Home Hack

Some housemates have a habit of hitting the “snooze” button on their alarm too many times. In an effort to efficiently awaken these types of housemates, an IOT alarm will be created. Once programmed, this alarm will first rouse the sleepy housemate with an audio alarm which will be quickly followed by an irritating display of LED lights. The only way to turn off the alarm will be to turn the lights on in the room. The photon will sense whether or not the lights have been turned on using a light sensor. In theory, once the housemate has gotten out of bed and turned the lights on, they will be awake enough to not go back to sleep.
