I've been wondering something for awhile. Can a lightening payment (zap) send a signal that closes/completes a physical circuit after it is confirmed that it is from a specific npub? Reading the article in this recent post from the nostr territory got me thinking about the sixth one: IOT Communication #482657
If so, it stands to reason that it should be possible to set up a garage door opener to open or close through the Nostr protocol and lightening network.
The lightening payment may not be needed, maybe just needs to be an open message that comes from a designated set of npubs. Usually two members of the household can open up the garage door. Then sometimes there are guests that you want to be able to open up the garage door.
Is anyone working on this? I'm not a coder, but I know my way around a garage door opener and the accessories around them.
