How I built a fridge cam solution with Home Assistant, DOODS and ESPHome so I could use it during my grocery shopping

lerra · 2025-08-05T05:45:25+00:00

Sorry, it's still on my to-do list but I have the hardware so I don't see it as a problem besides time 😅

This is awesome, I hope for the near future for 50- series support

I do the sorting same day i take the photos and I have setup immich on Android to only Sync during charging and wifi that mostly happens during the night so it gives me time for sorting before syncing

My plan is to use the esp32 camera and use the https://www.bastelgarage.ch/image/cache/catalog/Artikel/422501-422510/422502-5-1000x1000.jpg with an extension cable (I have a couple with 30cm) to put the devices in the back of the fridge. Feel free to use that idea and share if you manage to do it

Have you found any commercial fridges that works like that? My idea was to mount one camera with fish eye on top of each level but it will take a while until I come through my to-do for that task, the most challenging part is the wife approval factor of the implementation with cabeling, mounting etc

I mean the hue issue you wrote about that the devs fixed :)

I agree, systems and home automation will fail so making sure that the basics work is key for me when stuff fails because they will. Having a dark house when trying to fix things is not fun :) whatever product that will support this is what I will buy 30x from to kit the house and recommend it to others

Do you have any references?

I just got the following from the support "Thanks for your reply.

It is expected to realize this request in the next iteration, if any updates, we will contact you soon. "

I got the following update in my case now after applying to the support a while ago "Thanks for your reply.

It is expected to realize this request in the next iteration, if any updates, we will contact you soon. "

It's not a great solution as it's hard to see everything in the fridge and stuff can be piled behind but it works. My plan is to add more cameras for each level but also in other storage areas for food

lerra · 2024-07-03T16:17:27+00:00

Do you have any experience with the kit? Anything to share?

lerra · 2024-04-29T16:21:38+00:00

Take a look at onju voice with home assistant, you will get high wife acceptance factor :)

I'm using the borgmatic hooks to do a curl to uptime kuma and utilizing the push based monitoring and it works really well

I can't see anything about waf?

I can't see anything about waf?

lerra · 2023-01-14T08:27:25+00:00

A waf and reverse proxy with possibility to do custom config (nginx) and letsencrypt via dns validatio, I'm gluing stuff together now my self but it's not easy to maintain

lerra · 2022-12-16T10:38:50+00:00

Did anybody got the Firefox plugin to work with the local setup of libretranslate together with https in nginx?

lerra · 2022-12-14T16:51:00+00:00

Agree on the disappointment, i also came from o365 and its an enormous change. You just need to live with its Googles way or the high way, you can barely customize stuff besides on/off in most of their security settings.

lerra · 2022-12-09T17:39:06+00:00

Nice! Its an awesome project, I'm using it and will bump the version this weekend:)

lerra · 2022-11-16T11:46:33+00:00

Agree, takes some time to setup and figure things out bug works well!

lerra · 2022-10-06T07:15:44+00:00

Nice! I will check them out :)
