Hello everybody,
im Sven from Munic, 25 years old and i have a big goal (for me), where i could need a little help
.
The days before i wrote some messages with the genius member Kalle from germany because im german too. It's quit more faster to write in german
So please apologize the written mistakes if they appear.
So now to my goal: I want to control my hole living room with voxcommando
I would like to : Controle the TV (on, off, program switching..), control my lights (dim it, on, off), control my xbmc which is installed on my htpc.
So Kalle informed me verry well! Special thanks to him!
I'm now ready to order some stuff to build it up step by step:
The equipment i finally chose with the help of Kalle was the following: (you can get most on the equipment cheaper on ebay)
The Microphone :

Home Controller:
VeraLite Controller, EU Verison:

USBUIRT and iTachWiFi-Flex
My equipment at the moment:
http://www.amazon.de/Sedatech-Mini-PC-Multimedia-Radeon-HD6310/dp/B006GRW2N4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1422011359&sr=8-1&keywords=AMD+E-350+2x1.6Ghz+Radeon+HD6310+4GBW7 Professional, 4 TB external HDD for the movies and so on..,
Latest XBMC Gotham installed, Event Ghost, VoxCommander
With my Ipad i'm starting the htpc with wake on lan, with pressing a button on a bluetooth keybord xbmc is starting (makro event ghost)
For the ligths: I got Phillip heu with 3 bulbs (also connected to vc)
Finally i want to controle everything without having some headset on or something in my hand(like the Amulet Remote, or my Iphone -> App "Headset").
So the "open Room "microphone i postet should be the solution. It's only for the living room
What do you think? Is there a better solution that we haven't fokused on?
If this is the best solution at all i would order the stuff.
So please give me a short advice
I hope i haven't forgotten anything ^^. Otherwise i will post it later.
Thanks to all and kind regards
Sven from Munic
