    I’ve managed to create the VoiceControl module based on Snowboy Hotword detection: https://snowboy.kitt.ai/

    @darrene You’re missing parenthesis in your call to frombase64:

    this.frombase64();

  • RE: Earth globe

    Here’s how the module based on WebGL looks like on my dev box:

    It displays twitter stream of the tweets that have location. Red lines signify the negative sentiment and green positive. White is neutral.

  • RE: Motion Detector

    @strawberry-3.141 I have a feeling that the camera is not properly captured from the client side js code. I am going to create a dev branch with a lot more logging soon.

  • RE: Viewing Mirror through browser on network

    You should be able to access it from other computers. Make sure that you’re using the RPI’s current ipaddress.

  • RE: Stocks

    I’ve found a web service which provides free intraday stock quotes. You will only need to register to get an API key.

    https://www.alphavantage.co/support/#api-key

    The code in the module will need to be modified though to parse a different payload result. I will try to update it today or tomorrow.

  • Motion Detector

    I’ve published the Motion detector module that I’ve been using for a while. It uses a web camera connected to a Raspberry Pi.

    You can find it here:

    https://github.com/alexyak/motiondetector

    The configuration should be pretty straightforward.

  • Camera module

    I’ve just published the camera module. Besides displaying a video feed on your mirror, it could also take photos and email them.

    I’ve updated the code to support the new API’s from https://iextrading.com/developer/docs/#stocks. Which BTW, doesn’t even require registration.

  • RE: Trafficmaps

    @tyho

    Here’s a basic module traffic map module to display a static map with a route and traffic based on bing api’s:

    'use strict';
    
    Module.register('maproute',{
    	
    	defaults: {
            key: "your_bing_map_key",
            start: "Morganville, NJ",
            end: "New York, NY",
    	},
    	
    	start: function() {
    		Log.info('Starting module: ' + this.name);
    	},
    
            // Override dom generator.
    	getDom: function() {
    		var wrapper = document.createElement("img");
                    wrapper.style = "position:center; width:600px; height:600px;";
                    wrapper.src = "http://dev.virtualearth.net/REST/V1/Imagery/Map/Road/Routes?wp.0=" + this.config.start + ";46&wp.1=" + this.config.end + ";46&mapLayer=TrafficFlow&TravelMode=Driving&mapSize=600,600&key=" + this.config.key;
    		return wrapper;
    	}
    
    });
    

    Unfortunately there’s no way to change the style of the map on bing (black and white). You can get your map key from here:

    https://www.bingmapsportal.com/

    Thanks… Alex

    You will need to communicate via the API’s that these services provide. For example flickr has this:

    @trividar I don’t see anything related to the motiondetector in your logs. It seems the error coming from the mmm-systemperature/node_helper.js

  • RE: Motion Detector

    Hi All,

    I’ve revamped the motiondetector module to use a more optimised code to detect the motion from the web camera. The old one was performing very poorly. The new code works many times better. Just pull the latest from

  • RE: Stocks

    @ZTA0796 The object that you get int the stocks.js is the deserialized javascript object. In your case it’s going to be a single row object. You could just access the properties list this:

    this.result.symbol, this.result.price, etc…

  • RE: Stocks

    @ZTA0796 The original code does a hardcoded substring on the result:

    var result = JSON.parse(body.substring(3, body.length));

    You probably don’t need to do that.
