Turn of TV if no activity detected on couch for 20 min
Do you have these use-cases that you have thinking of automating for a while now, but don’t know how to get started? Whether it's business or personal use cases.
If so, I would recommend you check out: https://nodered.org/
Node-RED is a programming tool (open-source) for wiring together hardware devices, APIs and online services in new and interesting ways.
It provides a browser-based editor that makes it easy to wire together flows using the wide range of nodes in the palette that can be deployed to its runtime in a single-click.
E.g. one of my favorite use-cases is: “Turn of TV if no activity detected on couch for 20 min”
Short detail on how this automation works for inspiration:
- Small IoT Vibration Sensor placed under the couch
- If vibration is detected - > Turn on a timer for 20 min
- If Timer ends -> No vibration activity has been detected -> No one is watching TV
- Notify me with an Actionable Push-notification on my iPhone
- Actionable Push-notification allows me to turn off the TV with a single click
