It would be asome if you were able to connect this to sensors and actuators around your home :D

you could probably connect this to rPi to make it smart/connected.

Sounds like a good application for an Electric Imp (WiFi controlled GPIO for $30).

Would be fun to hook this up to one of those IoT Amazon buttons.

Maybe some raspberry pi or arduino setup could do the trick?

You might consider investigating say ESP8266 or ESP32, MicroPython, Raspberry Pi, OpenHAB, MQTT, OneWire and wave goodbye to your free time!

You can do that with the lowly ESP8266.https://imgur.com/a/UhL4OuD
