+=head2 SYNOPSIS
+
+Philips_Hue.pm - support for the Philips Hue devices
+
+=head2 DESCRIPTION
+
+This module adds support for Philis Hue lights to MisterHouse. More info on the hardware
+can be found here:
+  http://meethue.com
+     
+=head3 Usage
+
+In your items.mht, add the Hue gateway and Hue devices like this:
+ 
+   PHILIPS_HUE, <ipaddress_bridge>:<api_key>:<lamp_id>, kitchen_light, hue_gateway, Lights
+
+e.g.:
+   
+   PHILIPS_HUE, 192.168.1.106:mytestusername:1, hue_1, Living
+   
+Then in your code do something like:
+      
+   # Switch on the light if it is getting dark
+   if (<condition_that_needs_to_be_met>) {
+     $kitchen_light>set('on');
+   }
+
+To control the brightness and the color of the lamp, use the ->bri(xx) and the ->ct_k(xx) or ->hs(xx,yy) functions.
+
+E.g. to put the light in full brightness blue:
+   $light->hs(46920,255);
+   $light->bri(255);
+   
+=head3 Setup
+ 
+This module communicates with the Hue lights through the bridge device. You need to detect 
+the IP address of the bridge and you need to setup an API key to be able to access
+the bridge from MisterHouse. 
+Detect the IP address of your bridge with the C<hue-discover.pl> script that comes with 
+Device::Hue. Follow the instructions presented in that script to setup an API key.

+=head2 INHERITS
+
+Generic_Item
+
+=head2 METHODS
+
+=over 
+
+=item C<set>
+
+Sets the state of the Hue light. Passing arguments C<on> or C<off> sets the light on or off. 
+Note that C<on> restores the previous light state, both the color and the brightness.
+
+=item C<effect>
+
+Program an effect. This depends on what effects are supported by the firmware of the lamp.
+Currently this command takes as parameters:
+
+=over
+
+=item C<colorloop>
+
+Enable the color looping through all colors the lamp supports. Kids love it :-)
+
+=item C<none>
+
+Disable the active effect
+
+=back
+ 
+=item C<bri>
+
+Control the brightness of a lamp in percentage. Supports values between 0 (off) and 100 (maximum)
+brightness. Note that value '0' does turn the lamp off.
+
+=item C<ct_k>
+
+Sets the color temperature in Kelvin. For 2012 lamps the value should be between 2000 K and 6500 K
+
+=item C<hs>
+
+Sets the hue/saturation values to determine the color of a lamp.
+The hue value is a wrapping value between 0 and 65535. Both 0 and 65535 are red, 25500 is green and 46920 is blue.
+For the saturation of the light, 255 is the most saturated (colored) and 0 is the least saturated (white).
+
+=item C<hsb>
+
+Combined hue, saturation, brightness command. For supported values, see the respective functions above.
+
+=back
+
+=head2 DEPENDENCIES:
+ This code depends on the Perl module C<Device::Hue>. This module is published on CPAN.
