I have always liked having a live cpu usage indicator but the task manager thing is too boring and cannot be accessed when I am not near my PC and performing some complex computations.
Therefore I wrote this program after taking inspiration from stress-o-meter project.
This basically reads cpu usage and converts it into a number between 0-255 and varies LED brightness accordingly.
if CPU usage goes >50 percent, a message is sent to me on my mobile phone.
This way I can ask someone at home to switch on the AC for better performance when I am away from my PC.
