Show HN: Nuimo: Seamless Smart Home Interface

Are you involved in Nuimo? "Show HN" is generally reserved for things you created yourself, and the projects are expected to be in a usable state that people can try out.

That said, I backed on IndieGoGo when this was "Flow," and I'm excited about the improvements.

My main use-case is wanting a secondary input device to use with a Surface Pro (alongside the pen) for things like brush adjustments that are typically done by keyboard or the touch ring on an Intuos. The new development looks less focused on computer input and more on being an Internet of Things controller, but the new LED array still looks like a helpful feature for folks like me.

I'll likely end up setting up multiple modes, like brush size, brush softness, brush flow, opacity, and current layer. So having the LED array allows for visual feedback for which mode is active.

I'm also a bit less hesitant on this than most manufacturing projects, since it's all being produced in Germany. One would hope that will run smoother than trying to do all of the production in China like many projects do. And perhaps the broader target audience for IoT stuff and a second round of crowdfunding will boost production volumes and give them more leverage to have manufacturing partners prioritize them over other customers? Small production runs have definitely been a cause of manufacturing delays in other Kickstarter projects.
