5. C ONCLUSION The results of the Markthal Control App are promising. The Control App functions as a pilot project for future implementation of OpenRemote in Markthal and the simple controlling of the grid. The app is the first simple tool for end users to control the system. Our process of learning OpenRemote and implementing it to connect to the Pharos controller and the LED grid provided the Intelligent Lighting Institute valuable experience on the limitations of the systems and on what kind of problems first-time users of the systems can encounter. Although it remains to be seen if the Markthal Control App will be adopted by the researches or party organizers for controlling the light system, the process of creating such an app and exploring the possibilities of the systems was a truly interesting project. Experiences gained during the project function as a valuable resource for future projects in the Living Lab. The extended user manual is also a valuable document for the Intelligent Lighting Institute, as it is the first system-specific manual for the Markthal installation with a low threshold and a simple explanation of operating the complex systems of the light grid, Pharos and OpenRemote together. 6. A CKNOWLEDGMENTS We like to thank Philip Ross for his valuable coaching and feedback throughout the project. His dedication and positivity was contagious and that helped us to bring this project to such a nice end. We would also like to thank Don Willems for his tips and tricks for working with OpenRemote. Don was able to fix most of the problems that occurred. If he didn’t know a solution at first sight, he would always find a way to help us.
