Automate your shades, turn on the dehumidifier if it gets too humid, or make your robot vacuum dock itself when you come home.
. Camera events include package detection, familiar face detection, motion, and pet detection. What can you do with that? I’m just gonna quote the blog post directly:When a dog is detected, you can play calming music to help your dog relax. You can also set up your Chromecast with Google TV to play a dog-friendly TV show.More practical for home automation tinkerers is the ability to create custom phone notifications and starter suppression .
I’m pretty excited about that last bit. When I first got access to the script editor, I set the lights in my office to turn on when motion was detected in the office. That worked well until the first time I walked into the office in the evening to turnthe lights, only to have them turn right back on when I walked out. Starter suppression is going to be real handy.
Google says the new Home and script editor features are rolling out starting today; I haven’t seen either yet on my account, on Android, iOS, or the web, but rolling out means rolling out.
