HAM is a NLP Messenger Bot that can remotely change the state of connected appliances.
It uses a pre-trained RASA NLU Model to parse users text to get their intent and based on the intents dispatches the appropriate command to the users connected appliance.
It uses websockets to communicate with the appliances through a proprietry set of commands. If an appliance is not online at the moment of sending the command, the command is pushed into a queue and resent as soon as the device is available to handle the command.
This project has an accompany dashboard for configuring devices at https://ham-portal.herokuapp.com. It uses your facebook accounts to link you with the bot. Its code can be found here.
