Wand Camera

Control smart home actions by casting spells with a magic wand.

This repo expands on the PyPotter project with some updates for my ecosystem:

  • Integration with Google Assistant via Assistant Relay
    • Allows sending of arbitrary commands to Google Assistant to more seamlessly trigger complex actions
    • Home Assistant is no longer required as long as Google Home can see all the devices you want to control
  • More accurate classification of wand patterns from the camera feed via machine learning (https://github.com/dasavi/ml-sandbox)

Assistant Relay

In order to use the Google Assistant commands, you must have an instance of Assistant Relay (https://assistantrelay.com/) running
