This tutorial uses a particle photon to control a relay for the garage door.
Particle photon garage door opener.
Also i would be willing to help anyone that is interested in doing this at their home.
In addition i am creating some particle variables and functions so i can a monitor the status location of the door and b send the photon button press commands from the particle console cli command line.
I had some problems when i moved in when my wife put a cfl in and her opener worked and mine did not i have an older car.
The photon itself will run you about 20 and the rest of the parts for a single door will probably set you back another 10.
So i got mine built tested and working with wemos d1 mini pro until i tried to reconnect the wires to the wall button near the door wired button that co me with the garage door opener.
This will allow you to know what state the garage door is in closed door opening open door closing instead of just closed or open.
The wifi on the photon is causing some noise and not allowing our garage door opener to work.
Demonstration of a wifi garage opener using a particle photon.
Please contact me if you would like a copy of the code for this project.
When wired together the wall button doesn t receive power or open or close the garage door.
The wireless works fine.
I just found out that the garage door project is interfering with the car garage door buttons.
