All right, let’s hear YOUR opinion… does my home automation go overboard? Is that even possible?! 🙃
How I set up the automations: https://smarthomesolver.com/reviews/insane-automations/
These automations are fun, but not particularly practical. The idea of home automation is to trigger events without having to consciously adjust your behavior. You can do a lot of these using state variables that eliminate false positives and not have to physically pickup the smart phone. I wouldn’t say most of the automations go overboard, they are clever an fun, but I feel if you have to remember to set your own conditions it defeats the purpose.
Would love to see a weekly or monthly video edition of crazy automations that you and your subscribers from around the world do. Unique things that we can all use if we need to.
I might make my ceiling lights flicker when I pound my desk so people think I hit harder.
Maybe put the NFC tag behind a picture. Maybe the picture can be a sign of the automation.
I dig the first one. And good call on Ted Lasso. Brilliant show.
Your taking it wayyyy to fair!!
watching your videos your wife seems like a total jerk who's feedback is "i turned it off" that must be infuriating
It's not just in films 😁 One winter, a professor turned on a heater in the classroom. It's one of those old ones with the tubes. Only one of the tubes was working so the heating was minimal. A friend gave the heater a careful slap and one more tube came back to life! 😁 We were all thankful to him.
Got the bed sensor need kids now suggest a good spouse please.
Can you adjust an alarm dynamically by checking the earliest meeting on your work calendar the following day?
Expectation: something is automated
Reality: you need to press the button every time
Literally all the same idea used for stupid shit
The title should be "finding problems for a solution". All of these are unnecessary
why u speak so slowly
Definetly taken too far on a few of the ideas. The whole setup assumes that certain habits or actions have to be fixed, else the automation fails
1.5 Times speed fixes the weird audio slow down that is happening.
No… but for real 1.5 speed makes him speak at normal human tempo.
I can't imagine living my life at the whim of my spouse…… So sorry guys!
What Alexa skill are you using for the roborock?
They are nice, but … too far mostly… why not change vibration to click button, which would be more particle
I think weight tracking device could help the vitamin taking problem, any manufacture want to release that device?
Now I want to get a old school Jukebox, mount a vibration sensor and do a Fonzie impression every time I want to play some music
I haven't heard so much BS in my life before
Just use your brain and don't waste time of the viewers
The vitamins should be placed on some king of a button, so the vitramins action activates when you pick it up 😀
The sleep thing should be easier with just a little programm on your phone. Could be something like "have not touched your phone for 6h between 22:00 and 06:00 he is sleeping" Set the alarm to the appropriate time" or something like that
But the sensor is awesome for the get out of bed motivation with kids 😀
hmmz percussive maintenance as automation gestures 😛
I don't have an automated robot to clean my home, but I love the entertainment system option. Can you automate my girlfriend so when I tap her, she knows where to go clean up after herself?….lol
This video was fun.
"Kids, I need some help, go jump on dad and wake him up." That one cracked me up!
I have vibration sensor (zigbee) in my mail box. Automation- message to my phone and a light on.
Home automation: yes please.
Connecting that automation to the internet: absolute no go.
Need another version that doesn't rely on the usual smart home systems nor a wifi that is connected to the Internet.
I really like the alarm timing thing a lot.
great video
If you actually used scary voices to keep your kids in bed I bet you didn't keep them in their room or get sleep because the kids having nightmares
Whenever I watch your videos, I get data protection nightmares.
this guy sneaked in everywhere his family visits to place nfc 😀
