Hi guys. Haven't done much in a while but I need your genius advice now. This quadriplegic is controlling my heating, airconditioning and living room with a foxpro database. I send messages via com port to an old (obsolete but still working) stargate system to run my x10 light and fan switches. I have another usb to com port sending commands to a pc to ir linc to send all my remote signals. This system includes 600 cd's and 600 dvd's all cataloged on line. It lets me call up fancy jukebox views (about 10,000 songs) and or pick and play any of 600 movies with 1-key touch. Eventually I want to stream movies (.iso) and more music (mp3's stored on a Drobo 5n, but for now...
I just got alexa (amazon's echo) and I want to build voice control over everything. Could go insteon, Logitech or some other pretty pricey alternatives... but does anybody think I could build up an app with IFTT and get foxpro to catch the requests via cloud?
