I also plan on making some EspDeck style keypads to control everyone, so there&#8217;s a control list for that as well. I&#8217;ve already gotten some of these things done, and have some further experiments to try out and demos to build out while I work my way to building a solid foundation for it all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Features<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Stream Media from Local Sources<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Stream Bluetooth to any\/all Rooms<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Simple Controls<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Keypad Controls<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Play\/Pause<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Join\/Leave Group<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Volume<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>NFC for Media Selection<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Steps to Get Everything Going<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/lab.rapternet.us\/?p=3131\">Make an adonno tag reader<\/a>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Learn how to control music with the NFC tags in Home Assistant<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/lab.rapternet.us\/?p=3514\">Create a custom design integrating the adonno features into an EspDeck and adding a rotary encoder<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Get a speaker or two\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Start integrating the NFC controls into the speakers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Create some playlists and start making NFC tags for them<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;m hoping this will make the parts bite sized enough that I don&#8217;t put the project down for another few years, and can get it done and start making use of it.
