This can be on a non-standard port but don’t assume that’s any form of security. It’s probably best to avoid anything on there that could be useful to the bad guys or expensive to you. If your ISP doesn’t give you a static IP address, you may need to use a Dynamic DNS provider. I already use dyndns for other things so was covered there.
Make sure to use the same Google account to have the same Google Assistant on all your devices. Turn your app into a remote control and stream audio/video to a Cast-enabled device. Click on create credentials and select API Key and choose close. Make a note of the created API Key and enter it in the actions.py script at the indicated location. The way I opted for in the end was to use If This Then That. For anyone who’s not heard of it, it’s a web site that allows you to setup little jobs that get triggered by things.
Step 4: HEADLESS AUTOSTART on BOOT SERVICE SETUP
The main step is to build an Node + Express server that is able to handle POST requests. So, there are lots of guides on getting started with relays on the Rasberry Pi. I mostly used Youtube tutorials like this one to get started. After the setup, you'll get something like this in your terminal, then all things working good. Be inspired by top smart home brands who are delivering the best smart home experiences for their users on Google. Integrate your devices with Matter and connect your Matter devices with Google .
With the simple push of a button, I am able to control the status quo of said electronic. Turn on the lights, adjust the thermostat, or get an alert when there’s a person or package at your front door. Google Home on WearOS will be available as a preview as we continue to add controls and improvements. With Google Home, your Nest and Matter devices work together reliably to help with your household needs.
Control your Matter devices with Google Home.
The image above shows the USB webcam as card 1 and device 0. Take note of the card and device numbers for both microphone and speaker output. Camera users can now choose to include video clips when submitting feedback on camera events.
You can install your webcam in a specific room you want to monitor, either when you’re in another room or even when you’re at the office or on the go. It’s great to monitor your baby’s room when baby is sleeping or to monitor your house or the outside of your house. We will do that and connect it to your Google Home in step 7. The connectivity of your Raspberry Pi allows you to create easily your own unexpensive DIY smart light systems which will later connect to your Google Voice. It’s a great alternative to much more expensive solutions like Philips Hue.
Creating the Google Project
For example, Autoplay and Stream I got you command will play the requested I Got You and after the end of the track will autoplay susequent tracks. The number of autoplay tracks has been limited to a maximum of 10. This can be changed the under the YouTube_Autoplay function in the actions.py script. Open the service files in the /home/pi/GassistPi/systemd/ directory and add your project and model ids in the indicated places and save the file.
— which you can place anywhere at your home and it will do some amazing things for you. It will save your reminders, shopping lists, notes and most importantly answers your questions and queries based on the context of the conversations. Use the Home app to control on/off, volume, playback, inputs, and more for your connected streaming and media devices.
I suspect that most buttons that support Alexa would be good candidates, or you could find a way to do it directly through the Pi. I tried using the internal and external ip but both say connection refused. I have a custorm port that was set up a year back.
As it turns out, the Geeni app is working just fine and all the devices can be controlled from there. My existing IFTTT commands through the maker channel are still working, but they've changed the naming structure since I made this guide. New commands still use the Google Assistant trigger, but the web requests are now handled by the "Webhooks" action.
The speaker-test command is used to initialize alsa, so please do not skip that. AIY-HAT and CUSTOM-HAT users, please reboot the Pi at places mentioned, else it will lead to audio and taskbar issues. After the Bluetooth speaker is connected, the .asoundrc file will be generated with the Bluetooth speaker info in it. You need to modify this file to set up the built-in microphone on the docking hub. Replace "raspberry-pi-ip-address" with your Pi's ip address, and don't forget the colon before the path. If you downloaded the JSON file to another location modify your local path to reflect this.
For the trigger text, I entered “switch the christmas lights $” without the quotes. Switch the christmas lights XXXX” where XXXX is any spoken word or phrase. I also set it to use the words Fairy lights in one of the option boxes. For the output I have it say “OK, turning the fairy lights $” and it replaces the $ with whatever you said earlier. In ifttt.com, you need to link to your google home account and the webhooks service. To do this go to the My Application section and click the Services link on the right hand side.
In addition to the push to talk feature, you can also trigger the Google assistant by saying Ok Google. For this you have to enter an invalid device id for it to work. Incorrect device id can be anything like aaaa , abcd. Now run the following command to first time launch of Google assistant. In this command replacewith the id of your project. After the opening of browser, go to the previous terminal window in which you have setup the Google assistant sample.
Since this is a virtual environment, you'll need to install RPi.GPIO before moving forward. You will need to replace my-dev-project with your Project ID . Your device-model-id is listed under the Device registration section of the Action Console.
