Description: How to control your Raspberry Pi with an Amazon Echo (Alexa). Home automation can be cheap using a relay module instead of buying expensive "smart home" switches and outlets. Materials used in this project (amazon affiliate links): Echo Dot - amzn.to/2usgntT Raspberry Pi - amzn.to/2upw7je Touchscreen - amzn.to/2usgBBf 8 Channel Relay Module - amzn.to/2gWP1Jk Mini Keyboard - amzn.to/2us9fho Camera Remote - amzn.to/2usEEjT Cheap Camera Jib - amzn.to/2upkRDb "Fauxmo" Original File github.com/makermusings/fauxmo The nice part is you can control anything using this method. Any input that raspberry pi accepts can be used as feedback to control any output. The echo adds voice recognition and an audible response.
