LumiCore turns any LED strip into a smart lighting system. 17 dynamic effects, full RGBW colour control, BLE setup, and a beautiful app — all built right here in Ireland.
LumiCore brings professional-grade lighting control without cloud lock-in, subscriptions, or complexity.
Interactive colour wheel with real-time RGBW control. Dedicated warm white channel for SK6812 strips. 12 instant colour presets from candlelight to daylight.
SK6812 · WS2812Fire, ocean waves, aurora borealis, meteor rain, candle flicker, comet, sparkle and more — all rendered in real-time on the hardware with gamma correction.
Hardware RMT · 800kHzNative Flutter app with dark theme, animated LED preview strip, tabbed control, and instant response. No registration, no internet required after setup.
Flutter · AndroidFirst-time WiFi setup over Bluetooth directly from the app — no AP mode, no browser required. Secure credential transfer with live status feedback.
NimBLE · ESP32-C3Dedicated sleep-friendly mode with warm white light and adjustable low brightness. Sleep, Reading, and Ambient presets in one tap. Auto-restores on power-on.
NVS PersistentGroup devices into rooms, control entire spaces at once. Save and recall scenes across all connected strips. Floor plan visualiser shows your layout.
Local Network · No CloudScans your local network and finds all LumiCore devices automatically. Add by IP as fallback.
WebSocket for instant state updates from hardware, HTTP POST for rock-solid command delivery.
Brightness and speed sliders only send commands on release — zero jitter, zero flicker during drag.
Organise strips by room. Save any combination of settings as a named scene, recall instantly.
Beat detection via phone microphone drives reactive lighting. Color flow, beat flash, spectrum and more modes.
All device settings saved to NVS flash on the hardware. Your lights remember their last state after any power cut.

We believe smart home technology shouldn't require cloud subscriptions, privacy trade-offs, or engineering degrees.
LumiCore exists to make professional LED lighting control accessible to everyone — from hobbyists and makers to small businesses and homeowners. Our hardware and software work entirely on your local network, respecting your privacy and working without any internet connection.
We're building toward a world where your home devices work for you, not for a corporation's data pipeline. Every LumiCore product is designed to function fully offline, indefinitely, even if we cease to exist as a company.
No cloud, no telemetry, no accounts required
Documented API, maker-friendly hardware
Designed and developed in Ireland
Quality components, no planned obsolescence

iOS / iPadOS app. Time-based schedules and sunrise/sunset automation. Integration with Siri Shortcuts and Google Home. OTA firmware updates from app.
LumiCore started as a personal project to build a proper LED controller without paying for cloud subscriptions or dealing with closed ecosystems. What began on an Arduino has grown into a full hardware and software platform.
We're a small, independent company based in Sabinov-area, Ireland, building tools we'd want to use ourselves. That means real documentation, open protocols, and hardware that works forever — not just until a server gets switched off.
Every line of firmware and every screen in the app is written and maintained in-house. We move fast, respond to users, and build in public.
