Show HN: Magic-markers – control a smart bulb with crayola markers

control an led smart bulb using a set of crayola markers! inspired by this reel. the main difference is that this is an entirely self-contained, open source project that does not require integrating with any smart home systems.

each marker has a unique rfid tag, which is read by the nanoc6 rfid reader. the rfid reader exposes a wifi access point to a lightbulb running tasmota firmware. color changes post a command directly to the led smart bulb via an http request to the tasmota command endpoint

with a fresh tasmota bulb, a template needs to be flashed to it. the below command configures the bulb and restarts to connect to the esp32 access point.
