Hi! The Google Home integration for Gladys already covers lights, outlets, shutters, and TV is in progress. In my opinion, a major piece is missing: heating/air conditioning appliances. Specifically: expose Gladys appliances of the thermostat/air conditioning type with Google’s TemperatureSetting feature (« OK Google, set the bedroom to 21 degrees », « what is the temperature of the living room? »), including modes (heating, air conditioning, auto). In my case, these are 3 Mitsubishi air conditioners (MELCloud) that I can only control by voice by going through the manufacturer’s cloud. Would other users be interested?
Identified need based on my home automation setup, analyzed and written with the help of Claude (AI) — reviewed and approved by me.
I don’t have a Google Home, but if you ask the beast to turn on the air conditioning, your Google Home will send a message to the Melcloud cloud, which will then turn on your air conditioner. Is that correct in the process?
