I know its already been called out as on the radar, but I wanted to toss in here a more 'formal' request. "Smart-home" integration is pretty vague so theres a couple things in particular I'd love to see:
- RTSP/ONVIF camera streaming support - Ingest live feeds into Frigate/BlueIris.
- Generic Start/Stop/Status commands - Start mowing/patrol, see progress percentage, stop/pause, go-home etc.
- Send to location - Particularly with the camera integration, being able to send to a particular area seems pretty neat (I don't see myself using it a whole lot at the moment, but checking in on X fence location seems magical, even if they're preset locations and not GPS coords)
- Gate interfacing - Be it a webhook or similar, let yarbo request gate open/close with callback. Most of us have backyards that are fenced. Letting the core interface with a gate (or set of gates) to cross boundries is needed. My charge mat is in the backyard but most of my grass to mow is in the front, I dont want to babysit nor spend many hundreds more on a second mat and go manually swap yards every third day.
- Telemetry - I'm a sucker for more data. Can we stream some telemetry like the rain sensor, battery temp/level, detected events and on which camera?
In one of the videos from Yarbo (or an interview from Yarbo, I dont recall which) it mentioned that its using MQTT for some communications. Simply having access to that same broker, especially if its local to the DC or Core, would be pretty excellent.
I expect this list to grow, anyone have additional things to add?
