Using your voice to control everything has always been very interesting. With my shiny new echo I could connect all the usual “connected home” devices, but I really wanted the echo to keep my car warm and toasty on a winter morning. In this instructable we are going to make the Amazon Echo start any car. We will do this by programming a Raspberry pi zero to act like a Belkin Wemo switch, named My Car. You can then ask “Alexa turn ON my car”.
