This daily issue keeps all Idea Scout findings in one place for review, regardless of source adapter. These are inspiration items, not bugfixes or support threads.
Summary: Home Assistant iOS is adding two-way audio to its in-app WebRTC camera player when a camera entity exposes the TWO_WAY_AUDIO feature and backend re-offer support exists.
Suggested direction: Track backend support and then audit local camera entities for two-way audio capability; if supported, add a local follow-up to test iOS WebRTC talkback on the relevant camera/doorbell views and document where it is useful in the camera workflow.
Summary: Blitzortung PR adds optional reverse geocoding and device-tracker-based tracking so lightning events can expose human-readable area/location data instead of only lat/lon, which would make alerts and automations easier to read.
Suggested direction: If Blitzortung is present or added locally, create a follow-up automation/package that uses the new area/location attributes in Joanna Telegram alerts and optional dashboard badges for nearby strike context; otherwise just keep this as pattern inspiration for human-readable geocoded event notifications.
Summary: Idea: capture a screenshot of the Blitzortung lightning map so current strikes can be shared or logged from Home Assistant.
Suggested direction: Prototype a local follow-up with a dedicated Lovelace lightning view and a HA script or external capture step that renders the dashboard and sends the image in Telegram storm alerts or archives it in memory/log notes.
4. [GitHub] rtclauss/hass-config - Add predictive room temperature control (GBR + MPC-lite preemptor)
Summary: Predictive room-temperature control is a relevant Home Assistant pattern here: publish room forecasts, pre-cool or pre-heat before comfort drift, and score live prediction accuracy so retraining is data-driven instead of scheduled.
Suggested direction: Capture the pattern as a lighter local follow-up: add helper toggles and status sensors in packages/climate, compute simple room drift/solar-gain heuristics from existing room and weather sensors, expose forecast/preemptor state on a dashboard, and only consider a containerized scorer or model service later if local history and room-sensor coverage justify it.
Summary: TeslaMate added a fullscreen toggle for its compact vehicle map, keeping the embedded map passive until expanded and then restoring the default view when fullscreen closes.
Suggested direction: Prototype a Lovelace pattern for a compact vehicle or presence map card that opens an interactive fullscreen popup or panel view, then resets to the normal compact state on close for kiosk-friendly dashboards.
