Hello-Lucy

How would I be able to add the ability to hide all modules if the trigger word isn’t spoken after a determined amount of time, say 2 minutes? Then I can issue the voice command to show all modules to wake it.
I’ve tried using a pi-camera to detect motion to turn on the screen and turn off the screen, but i get the “HDMI not connected” symbol and the pi-camera is flaky where it doesn’t always work. I’ve tried multiple modules for the camera and don’t like any of them, as they can create multiple instance of the camera opening and then cause it lock up. I like how you can hide all modules to blank screen by voice command without disconnecting the HDMI output. until I can figure out a way to do this with motion, I’d like to be able to do this automatically, like a time-out.
I’ve tried-MMM-NotificationTrigger to try to fire the HIDE_MODULE notification in your code, but I have not successfully found a decent notification trigger to make it happen. If i get a USB Webcam in the future maybe i can use motion as a trigger to fire the notification, but like I said, i haven’t had luck using motion on the pi-cam so i doubt i would on a webcam.
Also for page navigation, I like to use MMM-Carousel by shbatm, the navigation buttons to go from one page to the other will be instrumental to when I add touch ability to my mirror, so i set up Hello-Lucy with just one page showing MMM-Carousel, is there anyway to incorporate voice activation on Hello-Lucy to work with changing the pages on MMM-Carousel? I think they are called slides on MMM-Carousel.

@rrussis82 i have a module, MMM-SleepWake that uses module hiding to darken the screen… (all of my TV’s have the dreaded no signal problem).
it requires some out of MM source (external) to signal motion or not…
I use the github motion project with my webcams to get that external to MM event info
sudo apt-get install motionedit the /etc/motion/motion.conf
and set the external start/stop exits to trigger the script I provide to inform my module of the motion
(all in the instructions of the module)motion project can also record video, pictures and a lot more… with all kinds of config for what motion means
(how long from end of actual motion before signal, it is motion if the room lights are turned on and there is a sudden flash of light for the camera… etc.etc…)
I didn’t want to write all that (and based on the audience here, config is important)…I have not tried motion with the pi camera…

But when I give command like Hello Lucy it won’t respond.
Have you followed all the instructions in the readme? There is a file just for setting up your microphone.

@rrussis82 said in Hello-Lucy:
so i set up Hello-Lucy with just one page showing MMM-Carousel
Hello-Lucy will do pages without Carousel.
In any event, I’ve put further development of Lucy on a shelf.

@sdetweil Tried it, too confusing.

@rrussis82 if u have time and are willing, I would be interested in what you found difficult and try to find ways to make it easier. we can work thru email or chat…
thank you for your consideration -

Hello Lucy!
That poor kid having to be related to you LOL I hope she doesn’t need therapy later in life

Haha!

Hey @Mykle1 first off great module, but I’m having a little difficulty, A ) I have no video at all now, B ) the mic works but constantly shows error, and C ) so far MMM-BMW-CC hides and shows but stays a loading climacell data. Any advice/pointers??
