I’ve been diving into the world of smart home cameras and custom widgets lately, and I wanted to share some of my experiences and tips with the community. Motion detection has been a topic of interest for me, especially with my recent setup of an outdoor camera with floodlights. While it’s been a great addition to my security setup, I’ve noticed some quirks with motion detection, particularly in low-light conditions. I’ve adjusted sensitivity settings and experimented with detection zones, but there’s still room for improvement. I’d love to hear if others have found effective solutions or tweaks that enhance accuracy in such scenarios.
On another note, I’ve been exploring custom widgets for my Xiaomi V2 Gateway. It’s fascinating how a bit of coding can transform functionality. I’ve created a widget that changes the light color randomly when clicked and allows for precise adjustments via a hue slider. The background even reflects the current light color, making it both functional and visually appealing. I’d be happy to share the code and rules I’ve developed for anyone interested in trying something similar. It’s been a rewarding project, blending creativity with practicality.
I’m curious to know if others have encountered similar challenges with motion detection or have tips for optimizing camera performance. Additionally, if anyone has experimented with custom widgets or automation rules, I’d love to hear about your experiences and any innovative solutions you’ve come across. Let’s keep the conversation going and help each other enhance our smart home setups!
