An example that is actually interesting #831

I'll be blunt and tell the truth: the example applications are boring.

We need some application that shows that RIOT is actually useful, like a multi-user snake/tron game, or (probably more difficult) posting a tweet.

I flirted with the idea of actually implementing a CoAP-based network + HTTP-Gateway, where you configure, what sensor data to gather and then do something shiney with it… But I did not found the time to think about it in more detail. Maybe a heat map of temperatur data (but for this we need localization)? I don't know…

Definitely +1!

I started also thinking on more thrilling applications. One end would surely be something connected to home-automation. Here I was thinking the same as @authmillenon, some connected sensors and maybe some lights/LEDs all controllable via web-frontend and mobile devices. Basically something build on the CeBIT demo, just taking it some steps ahead...
