@cq0q I tried a few of the Alexa modules and unfortunally none really worked. Finally I found MMM-AlexaControl.

I took a spare Echo Dot I had laying around, mounted it on the back of my mirror and plugged it into the USB port of the RPi for power supply. That is the easiest way to go:

• Simple module setup and configuration
• no hassle with microphones and speakers
• Setup scenes and similar in the Alexa app to e.g. switch pages on the mirror
• done.

@sdetweil The “Mother of all Modules”! :love-you_gesture_light_skin_tone:
That’s a fantastic job, Sam! Especially beginners will be grateful, but not only beginners.

@cowboysdude 🤣 you sound like the guys on Reddit. I‘d second this!

Thats really awsome!

@foxy25 Great start! I’m looking forward to the finished setup, as there is a similar idea for my kitchen growing in mind.

@DeanoNoire very nice and clean build!

I had the same. After

git pull

Enter

mom run update

and reboot.

Both thumbs up for the frameless design!

@MajorC yeah, that are the steps to go. The RCWL-0516 module is a 1:1 replacement of the common IR sensors usually used. MAke sure to follow also the instructions I wrote (see link in my signature).

@pakal41 I can assure you that the Doppler sensor will work 😃
