Host Bill McGeeney is joined by Art Hushen, founder of the National Institute of Crime Prevention.The seemingly harmless advice to leave all your exterior lights on overnight might not be the crime deterrent you think it is. Host, Bill McGeeney, reconnects with Art Hushin, a 30-year law enforcement veteran and founder of the National Institute of Crime Prevention, to dissect the popular #9PMRoutine campaign sweeping across police departments in the US and Canada.What started in Florida in 2017 as a well-meaning initiative has attempted to craft people's habits into a nightly ritual: remove valuables from your car, lock all entry points, and keep exterior lights blazing until dawn. But does that last recommendation actually make us safer? Art brings fascinating insights from his decades of experience, revealing how modern criminals have adapted to constant lighting by simply covering up – hoodies pulled low, faces obscured from cameras.Our discussion explores more effective alternatives that balance security needs with environmental concerns. Motion-activated lighting emerges as a superior option, creating an immediate stimulus that often causes intruders to look up reflexively – "that puts that extra doubt" in their minds about being detected. Perhaps most revealing is Art's perspective on simple solutions like actually using garages for cars instead of storage boxes, eliminating tempting targets altogether. Whether you're concerned about property crime, light pollution, or simply want to make smarter security choices, this conversation offers practical wisdom that goes beyond simplified routines and outdated assumptions about keeping the lights on.Subscribe:Apple PodcastSpotifyYoutubeTag Us and Share with a Friend:InstagramLinkedInTikTokSend Feedback Text to the Show!Support the showA hearty thank you to all of our paid supporters out there.

In this episode of Logics Academy, Mike speaks with Jen Giffen about her work at YRDSB, and her thoughts on stepping out of your comfort zone to learn programming. Notes: There are a lot of great events you will see Logics Academy at coming up. Connect is happening in Niagara Falls April 30th through May 2nd. We will have booth presentations, a playground to experience all our great devices and a chance to sign up for our new educator community. If you’re heading to Niagara Falls for Connect, please be sure to drop by and say hi! In May we will also be at the SK IT Summit in Saskatoon May 5th through 8th and I will be at Riding the Wave in Gimli Manitoba May 9th and 10th. Be sure to drop by our booth in Saskatoon, or come say hi to me in Gimli, we are really excited about both of these events. We have a BUNCH of new products about to launch through our partner Makeblock. We’re really excited about Halocode. Halocode is a wireless single board computer with built-in Wi-Fi support and microphone for student IoT and speech recognition projects. It has 12 x Programmable RGB LED lights, a Motion Sensor, 4 Touch Sensors and Micro USB Connector and can be programmed using mBlock 5 software based on Scratch 3.0. It’s $41.99 and going to be available in class packs for a discount. We know you’re going to love this. We’ll have some out for you to take a look at if you swing by our booth at any show we’re at going forward. Be sure to ask for it, I think you’ll be wow’d! We have a couple of pretty amazing promo’s happening right now. When you buy an mBot classroom pack you’ll get three free mBot addon packs - that’s 135 dollars worth of stuff giving you 10 possible alternative configurations for mBot. Pretty slick. ALSO, when you buy a Codey Rocky classroom pack you get a free Neuron Inventor kit. Neuron is a standalone product but also works with Codey Rocky to increase its functionality by quite a bit. The inventor kit is worth 165 dollars so this is a pretty amazing deal. You have until April 30th to take advantage of these two offers Ozo-Tales: Recounting Indigenous Legends Through Coding: https://bibliothequemazo.com/2017/03/26/ozo-tales-recounting-indigenous-legends-through-coding/ Jen Giffen on Twitter: https://twitter.com/virtualgiff Jen Giffen's Blog: http://virtualgiff.blogspot.com/

In this episode we hear from Riya Karumanchi, who is an entrepreneur focused on harnessing technology to better people's lives and making a positive impact on the world. From Riya: “I was just a “regular kid” until I was introduced to entrepreneurship at the age of 12 through an amazing organization called ZeroToStartup. Thanks to them, my first venture Smart Street Lights was born with the goal of making Toronto a more sustainable city. My team of Grade 7's created a prototype featuring Motion Sensor & Air Quality Data Streaming. Subsequent mentorship came from Ryerson's DMZ and was made the youngest member of Social Venture Zone at Ryerson! My second venture SmartCane began as a science fair project. It is a modernized orientation and mobility device for the visually impaired and deafblind community. It won several awards at BASEF. I attended Hacking Health Hackathon to improve SmartCane. My team won the People's Choice Award and I was offered an internship at MEDI
Hue Lights For many home automation is limited to lights turning on and off at prescribed times. Others would like the ability to control their lights while they are away from home. For these people full blown automation is not necessary. There are a growing number of products that will let you do this. They range from smart wall plugs to wifi connected light bulbs. One such solution are Hue lights. Hue lights are not the cheapest solution but from our experience they seem to be the most reliable and have the most options. Hue lights do more than just turn on and off automatically. They also can set the mood by changing color. They do cost more and for that you get the most robust and complete lighting system available. (Some) Hue Products Hue White and color ambiance Starter kit E26 $199 White and color ambiance LightStrip Plus $89.99 White and color ambiance Beyond suspension light $349.99 White and color ambiance Beyond Ceiling light $299.99 Motion Sensor $39.99 Dimmer Switch $24.99 Hue Bridge $59.99 And many many more! The Brains The Hue Bridge is required to control your system. This is where you can name your lights and setup scenes and scheduling. You are limited to 50 lights per bridge. If you want to connect more lights you can add an additional bridge. Fifty lights seems like a lot, but once you get started you will want all your lights to be Hue lights! You can also connect 12 accessories, remotes and motion sensors. More about those later. You will need an iOS or Android app to interact with the system and you can set it up to work from home or away. The Hue Bridge will also connect to Homekit, Echo, or Google Home. In our test we controlled the system by voice via Siri and the Echo with no issues. Installation Some people shy away from automation because it can be a bit complicated to get the system up and running. The Hue is straight forward but does require a little bit work to get right. First you download the app on your device and then go to the settings and scan the network for your bridge. Once found you will need to press a big blue button on the bridge. After it's connected more than likely you will need to upgrade the firmware. Now that your bridge is online you can start to add lights. Go to Light setup and add lights. Be sure that the light has power. Once found you can rename it and assign it a room. And that's it! You will immediately be able to turn the lights on and off and if you have color bulbs you'll be able to change colors. The lights will also need a firmware update. Our recommendation is to set it up to do those automatically during the day time. They take quite a bit of time. We did an update to activate some cool features but ended up waiting over an hour. If you are patient go ahead and do the update. Otherwise wait a day to start playing with the cool features that are in the hue lights. Performance Make sure you get the Gen 3 lights. The color is better than previous versions and you can get higher wattages. Our test included bulbs, LED strips, and the Hue Bloom. The Hue Bloom is a light that is designed to bounce it's light off a wall to give an indirect ambiance affect. Ours are setup behind the TV and can be synced to what is on the screen! When we set the lights to white we got bright white light. We could soften them up or select pretty much any color we wanted with a color wheel. The app has some pretty cool scenes that we ended up going with since our experimentation was kind of lame. Ara would take about ten minutes and set something up and his entire family would say nah. After three failed attempts he chose a pre-canned scene and everyone loved it. In the end he gave in and went with it. One of the reasons Ara dropped the VOCOLinc lights is because they would drop the wifi connection and lights would not turn on or they would stay on when they were supposed to be off. In the three weeks of using the Hue lights they have not failed once! I you want to go just a little beyond automated lights you can add the motion sensors and have lights turn on for you when you walk into your house or get up to go to the bathroom. They respond very fast too! There is also a dimmer switch that can control multiple lights. With this $25 accessory you can easily add a switch anywhere in the house that you want. Hue Apps There are a bunch of apps that add functionality to your hue lights. Some developed by Philips and others developed by third parties. These typically cost a few dollars. We tested an app that listens to your music through your phones microphone and then times the lights to the beat. It mostly works but there is some lag. We also downloaded a $3 app that watches your TV through your phone or tablet's camera and then matches lights, that you choose, to the color of what is on the screen. Conclusion Philips Hue lights are one of the coolest home automation products we have tested. The more you have the more the capability. The only complaint we have about them is the price. If you can afford them it is the way to go!
