I programmed my own server based off a hass.io instance, so I can use anything -- Alexa, Siri, Google, and whatever else they come up with in the future.

But since I'm well invested in the Apple ecosystem, it's Siri who controls my place. She's not brilliant, but she's smart enough.

I changed all the blinds and curtains to IR-compatible remotes, and did a backwards compatibility thing with an automated IR receiver/sender to make sure the commands work.

For the RFID door access, I ended up using proximity detection with my iPhone in combo with an RFID keycard.

So when I'm 50 meters away, temperatures start adjusting and my lights as I like them, turn on. When my RFID card goes into the elevator, it tells the Wifi to unlock my door.

    I got this comment on my YouTube channel, comparing the new Carmen on Netflix to the old one we gre up with......

  • Lucy Lucy:
    "In the original Carmen looks like a man. The original episodes all end the same, the new one has more characters, they all end differently and the art style is better"
