# We are about to scale up the number of devices in service. What pitfalls should we avoid? We are going from R&D into production so the number of units deployed will grow over the next year. Are there steps we can take to minimize the potential complexities and problems? ##### Post Metadata

# I was thinking, except of using two Photons, using a RasPi in combination with an Electron(?) in my furniture. The floor of the Chair measures weight, the table measures inclination, vibration and light, and the table controls the lamp and the "pomodoro stripe" (see website for understanding). I refrained from having long cables between the two units, thus WiFi. But I figure, BTLE might be more useful, and some more computing power might also help, especially when the Chair stands somewhere exposed and I'd like to see who's sitting in it and doing what (mischief prevention), but also user-dependent settings would be cool, supported by OpenCV or something. ##### Post Metadata

# How to reduce lagging? I'm sometimes having a lag happening, for example, I have connected a LED strip with a 144ms timer to blink, sometimes it just freezes up or falls behind for a second or so. Is this library, my code, or hardware related? ##### Post Metadata
