Hardware
The SpaceStateSwitch is a DPST switch connected to the second ethernet port of a Soekris accesspoint. Closing the switch connects tx+/rx+ and tx-/rx-, causing eth1 to detect link up.
Software
The Access Point runs linux. Using cron the statecheck script is executed each minute; it uses ethtool to check for eth1 link up.
statecheck.sh script in pseudocode:
IF connection_state_eth1 eq connected AND laststate eq closed; curl http://user@pass:host/spacestate/setstate.php?state=open IF curl_success; set laststate open IF connection_state_eth1 eq disconnected AND laststate eq open; curl http://user@pass:host/spacestate/setstate.php?state=closed IF curl_success; set laststate closed
rudimentary 'API' for external apps
- http://hack42.nl/spacestate/state (contains the text 'open' or 'closed', to be read by apps)
- http://hack42.nl/spacestate/state.time (contains the last state-change time, to be read by apps)
- http://hack42.nl/spacestate/state.csv (contains date,time,state per line, for graphing purposes)
Tweets
Twittering the status change to @hack42 is done using setstate.php on the external webserver. It also modifies http://hack42.nl/spacestate/index.html , a very bare page which can be quickly and easily accessed via almost any phone with internet capabilities.
Interface to IRC
irc://irc.hack42.nl/#hack42 runs a gozerbot with rss-feed plugin. One of the feeds is http;//twitter.com/hack42, which is checked every minute and echoed into the channel

Options
Connecting tx+/rx+ and tx-/rx- can also be done using a DPST relay. This can be controlled by a SPST switch, an access system, motion sensors or simply hooked up to the room lighting.
