This is the reason why we love Android. Also the fact that this video is 10 years old and still amazing to see.
The secure settings plugin is what did it! Thanks again for the motivation!
Just showed this to my wife and she walked away saying great! Now the lights and the kettle are going to talk back to me! I LOVE THIS
Man, you are brilliant! I have found my focus and knowledge to be a bit lacking when trying to set up commands on tasker in the past, but you have re-inspired me. This is so amazingly cool! Thanks for sharing. Peace :-)
Anyone calling this a "fake" is just clueless. Your Android Kung-Fu is strong. This is perfect for theatre automation.
Awesome work. I can't wait for a Tasker interface for Google Glass, that will be AWESOME!
Random question, what are those things on the wall? Sound absorbers? They look very nice not some cheap foam kind stuff.
I just sent my whole Android entourage to watch this video ;) Great job!
Awesome dude....Can't wait to mimic this setup ASAP!!!
You sir are indeed the master of your domain!
+1. Since you don't mention the use of an IR blaster, are you using a Z-Wave wall outlet? Most TVs don't turn on when the power's supplied (only going to standby) so I'm interested in knowing how you integrated this part.
Incredible work man. You've inspired me to start my own project like this. It's not nearly as advanced yet, but hopefully someday...
SO AWESOME! I need this for all of my listings!!!
Hello,
I'm just wondering how do you chain commands in Tasker? Like "Command1 AND command 2"
Thanks :)
Brilliant! Whilst the voice recognition makes for a cool vid, the real beauty of Android Tasker is doing this stuff without even touching the phone! Like automatically switching on lights if I get home after sunset, or switching on the underfloor heating 30mins before whatever my alarm is set to, but only if it's cold enough to need it. Beat that, Apple.
Well done! You, sir, are the winner of the internet today!
How does this only have 300 views..sharing this awesome video.
Doug which z wave modules are you using? it says 4 but no specifics...
Man thats just awesome! Gotta study all that stuff as well, going to have this too :)
This is truly exciting! Nothing I want more than the setup you have here! Excellent job! Hopefully we can see how this works soon! If you could reach out to me, that would be incredible! Thanks for sharing!
Can you do this all with just the starter kit Doug, or is this more along the lines of the Family package?
Entire house needs this
Wow, thats fantastic!!! I will definitively intergrate some of that cool things in my house. Everyone in my house is using Android devices from smartphones and tables to android tv boxes and chromecast, so it should intergrate well.
are you using x10 for the lights? or another connected light system?
Now its up to you to take this guy's help and create a tutorial Armando... I soo love Android :)
Awesome video Dough Gregory... simply Awesome!
That is awesome! I would love to have that setup!
This is exactly why I prefer android over iOS. Great job. PLEASE for the good of man kind make a tutorial for us.
This is simply awesome! You are the boss!
great job just when I thought I was done I learn something new
Yes, we need a tutorial. I want this thing for my home, too. This is the future.
Only with Android... now thats power in your hand! am using Nexus 4 too! would love to try all this!
Doug, I really appreciate your stuff. Is there a video on tutorial instead of a demo. Keep up the work, You have opened a can of worms and I'm looking to overhaul my home now making it more techkie after seeing some of your videos. I went out and purchased a Vera Lite and a bunch of outlets, dimmers, etc... I'm a hybrid between Droid and IOs. Is there another resource you know that works with IOs devices?
Again, I really appreciate your stuff...
that was just AWESOME!!!
Thank you for your insightful contribution
This + Google Glass = Awesomeness!
What does the input switching? one of the zwave modules?
To you thinking this is fake, I can reassure you this is NOT fake! I have my Xperia Z setup with AutoVoice and Tasker and it is KING! Every time I hit the voice button and say my phones name "she" responds and I can give her a command! One thing to note though is that it will only respond to the commands you set up, it doesn't automate everything from scratch! Tasker is THE best app you can have on your phone, its worth it's weight in gold! =D
Incredible,,,blown away
I have got to get one of those!!! Awesome
Makes sense...While automation is possible using Android, this does not exactly conform to the definition of automation. Glad you ended the debate though, that went on far too long lol. I still enjoyed the video. Can't wait to implement this. =)
I know you can use any android phone because it is just a series of apps and plugins, but what phone is used in the video?
Love the portal sounding power down clip :p
Doug, I think you forgot to credit Assistant Event for Tasker in your software list. Awesome demo!
Thays pretty bad ass. What app did u use and what phone to do all this. How are the lights likned? By a reciever or did u wire it in to a computer?
Is there some sort of way that you could hook up external microphones all around the house so that way you could just speak to your system from anywhere in the house, hands-free, by a simple "ok google"? i.e. (walks toward bedroom)...."ok google, goodnight"..... and everything thing shuts off in the house. ...??? Is this possible?
I know this comment is really old, but I think it is possible. If you set up a main system, say an old computer running linux or raspberry pi, write some app to that can access all of the items you wish, like the tv, lights, ect. (not sure if anything like that already exists and can be downloaded) and combine with some speech to text program. then somehow setup the microphones around the house. Im not sure how the actual listening part would work though, would it be always listening for your commands? that would require it to always be running the speech to text program constantly analyzing all sounds, or maybe make it to constantly analyze only when you want it to, for example when you home.. activate it by telling your phone "im home" and deactivating it when you say "im out". Im sure it is possible, I dont know how exactly, but this is just my idea on how it would work
Teach me !!!
I'm in love with this house !
Which technology are you using to switch the lights on and off ?
Awesome demo. Inspiring me to wire up my place similarly.
Can you link to the components you used? (I've already got Tasker, XMBC, Yatse, etc.)
how exactly are you getting the google now swipe up to work with the auto voice command, because the only way that I found to do it causes an infinite loop
Did you use the same device to power lights and TV?
FUTURE!!! Im gonna love this decade aren't I
whats the internet tv app youre using?
This is incredible. Wow!
Amazing! You are a genius!
Can you control your fan ? also, if yes can you control the speed of the fan and dim the lights in it?
Was it just me or he turned the lights on and off and on a lot? Moderately impressed.
This is awesome!! I want this.
This is so AWESOME!
What app links the light settings to the tv controls?
only one question ..which phone are you using ?
This is quite awesome! You have inspired me to do something similar with my lighting. I am curious how you were able to use tasker to change the google now up swype. That is the final piece remaining for my puzzle.
does it work on any wifi item without the modules and just the apps on the phone ?
How do you get to turn your tv on? What module are you using?
I just love technology, real cool stuff
I need this in my life.
Can you explain with more details? what are you using to automate the lights and turn on TV, what modules, not only software.
Great job on this.
Can you post a tutorial on your g+ page or website? Including your tasker profiles and which z wave modules are needed.
This is too fucking good. I mean, i knew it was possible and all, but i didn't know it was possible to integrate with Google now. Real sweet work!
Yeah, those with no tech knowledge would call it fake. Those in the know, know this is pure tech savvy!
what controller did you use
Suuuper mindblowing!!
My tasker has a delay when its about to talk. Like voice command then the autovoice recognize it then it speakes after 3 seconds. Unlike yours. What should i do?
MY MIND has been BLOWN
how much did those acoustic treatments cost ? and where can i find them ?
Can you explain how you set up XBMC and Netflix to work with Autovoice? I'm trying to set up a profile which automates them.
He is using a plugin called Secure Settings. The paid version allow us to use the Google Now swiping for Tasker's task etc.
Notice the icon when he swipes. It is the logo of Secure Settings.
Far ahead of your time you were. Don't tell Jeff Bezos. He'll probably hire you.
Cool. So, how is it done? What hardware, software etc..
Totally awesome!!!
I made a write up about your demo on the Land of Technology site :)
That's pretty amazing!
Could you confirm or post a video showing what hardware is being used for the lights, TV, etc understand the software bit now.
Was the "shutting down" voice from resident evil?
Need one at home.. awsum!
It' s not about Android. It' s about electronics. I believe that creating the App was the easy part of all this stuf. I think that the difficult part is how to connect all these power enabled devices in one receiver and how this works. The android app just sends the commands to this receiver. This is the trivial. I would like to see an article on how this can be done. Good job and good luck with you career Doug Gregory!
"Shutting Down!" LOVE IT!
Try the Autovoice app for Tasker, it's like Google voice search, it recognizes what you say and does stuff based on the context.
Dude your my new hero
That is really cool!
Is this available on all Android uesers or only Google
Thanks captain!
Isn't it easier and faster to do it by yourself? Im just so greatful that when I grew up in 90's, there were no cell phones, no internet, life was so easy and simple.
I NEED a tutorial. GREAT video.
What phone are you using?
hey guys! how to control vera lite via voice only, without tapping on screen. Do you now apps to do it?
Would love a link to a more detailed description of the setup
One can do this with an Apple device. All you need is the right set up. As for Android, you are only limited to what you can do with Android. The possibilities are endless. All it takes is the right imagination with such an open OS.
anyone knows which phone he has ? i thougt its an lg g2 or g3 but it has a red led on the bottom so it cant be
