Softbox Stream Lights
My wife regularly streams on twitch https://twitch.tv/disco_doris
She uses a green screen and softbox lights.
She manually switches her two softbox lights on before streams and off after streams, using the in-line light switches.
I do home automation. Surely I can come up with a better way of doing this!
What about this: Buy an IKEA zigbee switch. Connect the lights to RF sockets. Get Node-RED to automate switching the lights on and off when the switch is used?
She also has an Elgato Stream Deck. Couldn't I create a web API hook that can be called from the Stream Deck? Calling the API from other things (such as a browser) should be possible too.
Oh - and I will want to turn the lights on and off from within Node-RED.
Finally, I want the current status to be sent to my InfluxDB visualizations.
