#Help to automate garage door with Tesla?
1 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
What do you want to do exactly?
Automate opening the garage door when my car returns home
Why not use Frigate with the newer 0.16 version, which supports license plate recognition for your vehicle? You can create an automation in Home Assistant so that when your vehicle approaches the camera, it reads the plate information and then opens your garage automatically ?
There’s a Tesla custom integration (can find it on HACS) or if you’re data-hungry you can run teslamate in a docker container, and it can populate sensors over MQTT
I don't have a camera there yet and I have no front plate
I've tried the hacs add-on, it requires fleet API access which I don't have. I got denied to when I applied
Is there no way to do it based on iBeacon or something?
Do you have a relais for the garage door? Do you have a NAS or a server at home?
I recommend @jagged atlas idea. I do have the same setup
Its fairly easy to setup
i have ratgdo setup on the garage door. Not sure what the NAS/server is for? oh you mean to run teslamate?
@deft trench if you have this setup, do you have an automation made for garage door open you could share the yaml please?
@solemn viper i run it on teslamate yes

Seems dangerous, others could make a fake license plate to open your door
