@pietervanharen typically there are only 3 wires

power (pin 6)
ground (pin5)
signal (pin 4)

so, power and ground should be easy, and picking an available gpio port should also be easy

and if you want to.program change it’s behavior the you would connect pins 1 and 2

thx @emlowe for your feedback

I must admit that I hesitated going forward with this project, but I realised I’m not in to make a perfect Google Home Hub replica. I want to find out how close I can get with the features I want.

The carousel seems similar to what Google does when you ask something. I also looked into the MMM-Page-Selector module because it seems to be a good way to define the different screens. It also seems to be working together with the MMM-Voice-Commands module.

For now I want to make two screens working, one screensaver screen with the Google Photo background, clock and temperature. And one with some information, just to have a proof of concept.
