Voice Control on MagicMirror Synology Docker

esign assumes the hardware is near

To solve the PIR problem I could wire the sensor to the GPIO of the Raspberry connected to the monitor (away from the Raspberry Server on the Synology) and turn the monitor off / on using a few lines of code (something I should find on the internet … do you have any advice ?) that run externally to the MM.

For voice commands I would like to use GoogleHome/EchoDot Alexa (better quality of voice recognition, integrated speaker, google/alexa functions, etc …) to send commands to the MM Server.
This last part is still being studied … I see that someone on the forum has tried the GH-MM combination but I don’t see many results …

@egnos alexa, use MMM-AlexaControl, but it sends to the server side.

so you could run FULL MM on synology and view on pi same as before.

PIR … quick search turns up lots of python based solutions

I run mine in Docker on my Synology. Use a pi behind the mirror for viewing with PIR hooked up to it.

Very Good

As for voice, yeah you might be outta luck there.

I know it! Someone on the forum has done something … but there is no feedback !

@sdetweil yes that’s right
