@sdetweil i’m wanna control light room (turn on/off) with voice comand and i want the comand show on the magic mirror interface, can help me?

[aljosie]

@sdetweil and i want only my voice can execute the comand, and i’m using the beardboard, light indicator and relay for this project, so this project just like for home automation system controlling the light room with voice.

@aljosie You need some philips hue light a philps hue bridge and then you can use MMM-Hue module and see your light status. But you need first to configure your system for google home usage. Then with Mk2 assisant you can request to turn on/ off your lights as the philps hue system is be connected to google home account that you use as well on your miror.
there’s few setup to make before all works. But I have this at home and it work like a charm .
