LCD web page like brewpiless

[raul811]

Great project I use both bm and bpl . Can you include in next version a lcd web page like in brewpiless with bottuns direct from web ui because I use the project with my phone and active Google assistant because I am blind guy . The web ui lcd in brewpiless works great with Google assistant , reads everything it is important for me and it's very easy to use. Thanks!

I don't really understand you. Is the lcd web page you mentioned the dedicated "/lcd" page of BrewPiLess?

There is in fact a mirrored display of LCD in BM web UI, even with buttons. It will be very easy to extract LCD part to make a dedicated page. However, derived from Open ArdBir, BrewManiacEx uses custom characters for pump and heating status. I am not sure how they will be readout in Google assistant.

I am happy to help if possible, but some more detailed requirements are needed.

The dedicated lcd from bpl is read by the voice assistant from my phone but in bm web ui page reads only the buttons name. If it is possible a dedicated lcd or web ui with a minimal information: temp.set,temp.primary,temp.aux ,time and the four buttons are very use full.

The LCD display is generated by drawing instead of pure text because there are custom characters, like temperature unit symbol. I can create a dedicated page that display something like this. 1st part:LCD mirror excluding special symbols. 2nd part:Four buttons. 3rd part:the information about temperature, set, and time. 4th part:hint, optional.

For example:

AUTO --> Mash 1/1 59.65°C 65.00Set 01:00:00 UP DWN PmPus STP (four buttons with labels) HEAT ON PUMP ON Temperature 59.66 °C Set 65.00 °C PWM -- % Time 01:00:00 Automation Mash Step(1) 65°C 60min Next: Mash Out 76°C 10min

How do you think?

To implement audio, ESP32, or an extra component, would be needed for its DAC, Digital to Analog Conversion, capability. Moreover, TTS, Text To Speech, is the key to implement this feature. However, I am not sure if ESP32 have enough RAM and/or flash memory to handle it.
