Android-controlled electricity source

[gunzfanatic]

Hi dear pals! I would like to share an idea I would be working soon,

**broken link removed**

The system consists in an Android App which you can click "play" and turn on the light or "stop" to turn off.

The thing is which components would you use in "A"?

is there any easy commercial switcher for "A" (usb or bluetooth)?

Thanks in advance!

A bluetooth module + microcontroller (you can use arduino or any other, depends on you) + a relay (or triac) can do it...

Thanks, what do you think about using IOIO? https://www.sparkfun.com/news/789#projects seems pretty modern and friendly right? :?:

Can you use a Raspberry pi, give yourself a web page and web interface so you can access it using both phone and pc etc.
Access from anywhere - use relays etc to turn on/off devices.

Raspberry pi is cute, but I do not need a web page interface since its an isolated device
