The Aqara cube is a three-inch square plastic cube that sends gestures over Zigbee to a cheap off-the-shelf dongle .
By pairing this cube with Home Assistant , I have a three-dimensional button with 45 unique interactions to control whatever I want.
Home Assistant is open-source home automation software, and it’s the only IoT software I don’t find myself screaming at regularly.
And over the last six months, I’ve used it to control a small fleet of antiquated streaming devices to help me discover new music.
I built a DIY Squeezebox from a Pi Zero Pimoroni PirateRadio kit and Squeezelite software.
I blanket my humble abode in music by combining a DIY PirateRadio, a Squeezebox Boom, and a Squeezebox Touch.
