+*Intern on Home Assistant Energy* + +## Blueprint of the week +------ + +Are you one of those who always leave the doors open? + +Then this week we have a nice blueprint for you! [BasTijs](https://community.home-assistant.io/u/bastijs ) +has made a blueprint that announces through text to speech in the house, +that a door is open and only stops when the door is closed again. + +{% my blueprint_import badge blueprint_url="https://community.home-assistant.io/t/door-open-tts-announcer/266252" %} + +Try it out!

+ + preview of the sun card + +
+ +On our [Home Assistant reddit][reddit] page we also encountered another nice +project, namely that of [AitorDB](https://github.com/AitorDB). Who made a +[Lovelace card](https://github.com/AitorDB/home-assistant-sun-card) that shows +the position of the sun when it rises, is at its highest point and sets again. + + + +## Collapsed card +------ + +Is your Lovelace dashboard overflowing with cards and do you want to +make some free space? Then try the card made by [RossMcMillan92](https://github.com/RossMcMillan92), +which makes it possible to collapse entire cards and reappear as a dropdown. + + + +## Hyperion - HA bridge +------ + + + +You have those TVs where LEDs are mounted on the back so that the colors of +the TV continue over the wall behind it, this is also called ambilight. If +your TV is not equipped with this, you can also make this yourself through +the [Hyperion project](https://hyperion-project.org). [pimw](https://community.home-assistant.io/u/pimw) +has also written an [instruction post](https://community.home-assistant.io/t/instruction-hyperion-ha-bridge-home-assistant/307708) +about this on our [community forum][community] on how to connect the bridge +to Home Assistant. + +## Got a tip for the next edition? +------ + +Have you seen (or made) something awesome, interesting, unique, amazing, +inspirational, unusual or funny, using Home Assistant? + +[Click here to send us your Community Highlight suggestion](/suggest-community-highlight). + +Also, don't forget to share your creations with us via Social Media: + +- Tweet it!
