Aqara Camera Hub G3 - Hand Gesture Recognition in Home Assistant?

with addon, no

Well then, at least I learned something about python over the weekend :smiley:
Thank You for help, knowing that this is not the cause of connection problem, is huge step forward.

I installed the addon, I made configuration. I don’t understand what should I verify in config node? there are some values ​​there… but I still have no idea how to add Hub G3 to Home Assistant

if there are values ​​in the config node, it was installed correctly, the entities will come out of NodeCompanion

There are entities but where I can find this card with all this information (config, ptz, video…) ?

I took a few steps forward. Some of the entities work but most don’t … below is the entry from the aqarapost log : [error] [ha-sensor:Camera G3 config] InputError: Attribute: TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading ‘freesize’). maybe there is a problem here?

so it’s difficult to understand the problem, is the “subjectId” value inside the config node correct with your mac address? Are appid and token valued?
You should add a “debug” node to see the error, it works for everyone, definitely it’s your mistake

from the error it doesn’t recognize the free space of the SD, do you have an SD inside the cam?

That was the reason, I didn’t have an SD card in the camera. after reinstallation, the entities started working. Thanks !

there are still 5 entities that are still not working : camera G3 ptz : allUP, allDOWN, allLEFT, allRIGHT, PTZ Center… any suggestion on how to run it ?

If the other entities work it’s impossible, you have to add the debug node to the PTZ http block. The only way to help you is to send me your token and subjectid

Hi Sew, I updated the flow,
1 delete “flow.json” from /addon_configs/797fde71_nodered_aqara/
3 restart addon

For PTZAll check if it works from the AqaraHome app → enable PTZ → default positions → rightmost leftmost etc…

FWIW, there was a new update release by Aqara that’s supposed to allow the exposure of hand gestures via Matter as a trigger in Matter compatible ecosystems. You can watch the video here: https://youtu.be/4XULASTc3KA.

I hope to try this to expose the camera pan controls in Home Assistant. I really missed having those in HomeKit and it’s the main reason I’d have to go into the Aqara app.

@sdavides, are all the items shown in the screenshots exposed to HA using your addon? I’m really interested in the pan/tilt feature which I can see in the screenshot. But I can’t tell what the links named “Premi” means in your setup, since it appears to be using both Italian and English. (A translate web search didn’t help either :wink: ).

Premi = Push button
