Just rings for now, going to expand functionality later to handle authentication for unlocking the door and maybe other things lol

Next, you’ll need to make your doors slide open, with a “shoosh” sound effect as well.
Super cool project!!
It gets expensive after a while paying the two dudes to stand there all day and move them.
Nice! Is this the Lovelace lcars plugin? I use that myself!
Lovalace LCARS plugin?
Oh neat, though I do use HA, I don’t plan on using it’s dashboard very much. My plan is to use it mostly for a central hub for hooking in IoT devices so I’m not reinventing the wheel every time I add something new lol and then I’ll build my own LCARS, that’ll just use HAs API over top of that
You could use the space for your house number, current weather and some other data. Really nice work!
What’s the power consumption on that? Does the screen go to sleep?
I never bothered to look I wasn’t planning on battery power. I’m powering this off the existing doorbell transformer and wiring with AC to DC buck converter
Though from time to time I had it powered off my laptop USB and that only delivers 500ma so I can’t imagine it’d be very much
Screen sleeps, but I wasn’t originally going to keep it that way, but people just seem to instinctively tap it to wake and tap the ring button without issue so I’ve decided to leave it to extend the displays life
