i don't know about you but it is a CONSTANT battle to get the kids to turn off the lights in rooms when they leave.... integrating light/motion sensors into some of the standalone buttons might be useful data to do something with.... :D Alexa: "HEY KIDS, TURN OFF THE DAMN LIGHTS!!!"
I have been investigating slapping a padlock with a Smart Outlet on it that is controllable, OR remotely controlling the router to restrict MAC address access to the internet if X Chores arent completed etc.... :D
It has taken a slight backseat to other projects atm, but should make an appearance this month for the #Make30in30 event! Thanks for keeping the pressure on, it helps!!
@@Geeksmithing I get it. Priorities. I’ve been stuck renovating our fixer upper for months while my laser, plasma, and 3D printer sit idle. Soon though, it will be glorious!
IF PIANO_SENSOR=0 THEN PLAYSTATION_OUTLET=0
EXACTLY! I have thought about that as well! :)
how about a mac address blocking script, no piano=no wifi or chores not done=no wifi so many fun options :)
Can’t wait to see it finished.
You have gotten far on this project, looks cool. I really like that touch screen, I will have to look into it
nice progress

just leave Alexa out of it and put a speaker, no need send the information to the internet for something going on in your house.

Reminds me of Code Red. Those were the days. Anyways, how's the progress on this?
