Custom Device/Key Mapping #30

Open EveAeternam opened 6 years ago

EveAeternam commented 6 years ago

I don't see this as currently implemented (correct me if I'm wrong!) but would it be possible to implement custom key binding? Like if you have a USB button connected to the Pi, or a USB gadget, having said gadget do an action like "Pause/Play" or "Mute" and volume controls would be wonderful. That way people can integrate their own buttons in the car!

Also if that button could turn on the listening feature for Google Assistant

EveAeternam commented 6 years ago

As long as it's mappable and bindable, I guess anything is possible!

htruong commented 6 years ago

You already can. Just that it will require some tinkering.

Then map it to OpenAuto's actions. I might get some GPIO stuff going later and it's in the plan too. I plan to resolve #14 at some point.

I'm sure everyone has seen this already but he does talk about shutdown in his newest video (he uses openauto). https://youtu.be/jFXxtxoi_pc

What about connecting a bluetooth keyboard using something like this:

This could make it possible to build some controls into a steering wheel or anywhere else that is impractical to extend a USB cable to.

I'm hoping we can do this via gpio so that I can use my steering wheel controls and replace my oem headunit altogether
