The key feature I haven't seen any of these opensource projects implement is microphone response coordination: If you have multiple microphones and speakers, which one responds? My google home's are terrible at this: often one in another room responds, but at least it's only one. When I tried to run Genie (https://genie.stanford.edu/) I had multiple devices responding simultaneously. It was a disaster. For me,... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
It's incredibly easy to do (caveat - at least if you're familiar with software dev already). Most thermostats are literally just digital thermometers that control a relay that turns the furnace/ac on and off. A simple arduino (or much cheaper IC) can easily do the same thing if you wire it in. And then on the software side... there's several large, open-source projects that exist in this space and provide nice api... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

For me that's Tasker. I've installed it on every phone I've owned since my Nexus 4 in 2013. Currently I use it to:. Source: 11 months ago

There's an Android app called Tasker that is much more flexible and powerful. It allows you to set up rules that trigger actions based on the contexts of your choosing, including combinations of contexts (ie location + time). It's $3.50 in the Google Play store. It does not require rooting. It has a large user community and there are lots of "recipes" out there for accomplishing various things.... Source: over 1 year ago
