Control a "Dumb" TV Using a Transistor and ESP8266
The goal here is to control a “dumb” TV using virtual assistants via Home Assistant. We tap into the push button of the TV and use a transistor along with ESP8266 to mimic a button press. GitHub: debsahu/PegasusTV Goal: Control a “dumb” TV using virtual assistants via Home Assistant Features: Uses D2 to control 2N2222 transistor Control using Web and MQTT API Completely Async WiFiManager Captive Portal to get WiFi credentials (Compile with -DUSE_EADNS for ESP8266) Connect PIN_CTRL pin to base of 2N2222, collector to Probe and emitter to GND Hardware Software Overview Libraries Needed platformio....
Hacking an Automatic Trash Can to Listen to You
Idea To convert an automatic trash can into a smart one. Hardware Automatic Trash Can Wemos D1 mini (ESP8266) 2N2222 transistor Implementation Here we use an ESP8266 to tap into the pins and emulate a physical button press. The ESP8266 uses a code as described in https://github.com/debsahu/SmartTrashCan to emulate a Wemo Switch, which is detected by Alexa/Echo device as a switch.
