  • veekie said: The use of IR for TV control was one of the main reasons i got the homey. Are there workaround for this issue like IR extenders/enhancers? The latest software status update (https://forum.athom.com/discussion/1430/software-s…
  • A quick try that worked for me one time was to unplug your Homey, wait a minute, and plug the power back in (Don't hold Homey upside down, just normally). If that doesn't work, maybe someone else can offer a solution

  • As far as I know, only the 'If' column for the buienradar app is not working (i.e. if I ask homey if it is going to rain in the coming 2 hours, the answer is accurate and provided by the buienradar app). Nonetheless, Athom should indeed be fixing th…
  • honey said: That is not the efficiency that is the relative intensity I rel = f(ϕ)  Right. Same principle applies though.
  • @MarcoF: Yes, but you should take into account that nowhere is specified how much of an overkill 100% efficiency is. Maybe the LEDs were made so that 2-3% of intensity is still plenty to bounce around your house 20 times. Although these numbers seem…
  • MarcoF said: Could somebody explain to may how I should read this chart? To me, it appears that the left and right side (separated at horizontal axes 0 degrees) are the same, but either rotated or stretched out. I will focus on the ri…
  • AbidDin said: Maybe there is a problem with the English interpretation, then. As I'd say 99% of what I say isn't understood correctly. Even if the same words are used, Homey hears them differently nearly every time. So for me, at this point vo…

  • MariusBrand said: Just did a test at echosim which was quite impressive. With your PC microphone, where you were seated 15 cm away from? Great, thats comparable to speaking through Homey via the Android App, which has no problems as well.
  • I think it would be best for you to check what is appearing on http://HOMEY-IP/manager/speech-input when you try to send commands to Homey. This interface will provide you with the interpretation of the speech, according to Homey. This will help a l…
  • I agree, this would be a nice addition indeed.
  • I believe you have arduino supplies, just like Kickstarter Geek versions have. They could be assembled with an arduino and could technically be able to communicate with Homey, but I don't know the specifics about it.

  • Oef. Well it appears Athom likes their sleep too much to be present before 9 (who doesn't? ) Let's hope this is fixed quickly indeed.
  • DenW said: Bumblez said: DenW said: ... the silence from Athom is puzzling, Did you miss the software update post from Emile? It explains that IR improvements are not their main focus right now, but that they are sche…

  • keverjeroen said: This is cool! Does homey use the entries in a random order? Or is it always first the first one, second the second one, etc.? Yep reandom @ErikVanDongen Thanks, will change it
  • Wauw, very nice, very usefull. I can use it for more advanced interaction with my Raspberry Pi Thanks!
  • Bumblez said: I think the main advantage of Google vs Athom, is the large amount of money, resources and advertising they can throw at it. So Athom will have to do their best to keep up the development... And the main disadvantage that …

  • Im curious about something about the video. At one point, the boy asks something about the nearest star (Alpha Centauri), and then asks 'can you show that on the TV', and it does. I find it hard to believe it can work exactly like that, but if it d…

  • It looks like it sends XML codes to an IP addres... That would be exactly the same as the Yamaha Receiver, which I've written an app for:  https://github.com/kruimel0/yamaha-app-homey I believe it might be easiliy adaptable from this source, but I …
  • I agree with both, especially for people who use intelligent locks.
