MagicMirror project for sister

blaukon

sure, might not be great, but it works well for me: https://gist.github.com/blaukon/1e6c4c9ad6ae98ad62545e1659555ecd

Might not work with every smartphone, for example, it works well with my Samsung Galaxy S8, but not without turning deepsleep off at my parents S7. Also did not work properly on my Sisters Huawei P20. Tried every setting but Android does turn Wifi off although “keep wifi alive even in standby” setting is active.
Just added my sisters Laptop IP and so far, it’s working fine at her place.

awesome stuff… if you wouldnt mind showing some config files… my assistant doesnt work aswell as yours, also with the googlemapstraffic do you need to buy an api from them of is there a free version? also the ring my phone feature is really cool, how did you achieve this?

thanks

blaukon

sure :-)
Uploaded my config.js and custum.css files (https://drive.google.com/open?id=16hNIqnGdpdmm9KeE-jcLGc0-fB80OpML)

You have to add your credit card to use googlemapstraffic, but you’ll have a free contingent per month which I never exceeded.
The ring my phone thingy is already implemented in the original google-assistant - as long as you use the same google account, you might have to grant the rights to use this function.

Thanks alot :)

hi again,

loking at your video and i was wondering how you got hotword or assistant to show the speech to txt? with mine i say the hotword followed by command which brings up the assistant rather than automatically onsceen like yours. i hope this makes sense to you!

@banbutcher hey, I’m using Version 2 from https://github.com/eouia/MMM-AssistantMk2 and the newest version of https://github.com/eouia/MMM-Hotword. Removed the presence on the mirror of both when nothing is decected and I belive that’s all I’ve changed :)

@blaukon hey well done man. Amazing job.
Please help me understand the following:

how did you attach the monitor and the mirror together?
How did you hold the monitor to the frame?
Is the frame strong enough to hold the mirror and the monitor?
Thanks.

sadly, I do not have more pictures or access to the mirror at the moment - alt text

But I made 3d modell in tinkercad to show you the necessary construction:

front:

-> orange: mirrorglass (bigger than the hole)

-> monitor right onto the glass

backside:

the frame is massiv, about 2-2.5cm wood, I have absolutly no worries that this frame would brake by itself :)
and that’s basically how it’s mounted:
