Embed Live Local Video in Your Dashboard
Take dashboards further with experimental local device input. Connect a webcam, HDMI capture card, or even an Apple TV to the machine displaying your dashboard, and embed live video right into your layout.
Video, layered into your smart home
Local input, treated like any other widget.
Local Device Input
Bring in a webcam, HDMI capture card, or Apple TV connected to the display machine — the feed stays local to that device.
Resize & Layer
Size, position, and layer video feeds exactly like any other widget for a truly custom viewing experience.
Dynamically Controlled
Feeds can be controlled dynamically, so video becomes an interactive part of your dashboard, not a static box.
Experimental & Evolving
This is a cutting-edge capability we’re actively developing — try it and help shape where it goes.
Your dashboard, now with live video
Connect a local input device to the machine displaying your dashboard and seamlessly embed live video directly into your layout. These feeds can be resized, layered, and dynamically controlled just like any other widget — perfect for a media corner, a doorway camera, or a full interactive viewing wall.
Turn any display into a hub
Imagine a kitchen wall panel that shows your smart-home controls and the live feed from an HDMI capture card, or a media room dashboard with an Apple TV embedded right alongside your lighting scenes. Because video is just another widget, you compose it into the same beautiful layout as everything else.
