Hi there!
This is half offtopic, but i want to share with you my new device. Once again i did nothing new, i just use old devices in a creative way.
What i did is to remove the screen from an old laptop, buy a controller in AliExpress, frame it , connect a lonely Google Chromecast, and the result is… my new “Google Echo Show”.
I use this name because as you can see it is inspired by Amazon Echo Show 15. Since it works with a Google Chromecast, it allows me to:
- Play any streaming app on Android / Google TV
- Launch Google Assistant through the remote (and control my home devices this way)
Also (this is the most interesting part), i use the app Dashboard Screen Saver to replace the default screen saver with an external URL which is (guess what) a dedicated wall panel from my Home Assistant.
I use this device in my home office, and it is pretty usefull to do anything i want. You can read full details about how i did it in aguacatec.
If you find it usefull
You can help me to create more things like this if you:
