Aputure / Amaran Sidus

[drummerjames]

Describe the integration you'd like

I'd love to see support for controlling Aputure / Amaran Sidus devices (like amaran P60c, MC, MC Pro, B7c, etc.).

What are your use cases for this integration?

Control Amaran Lights via Home Assistant

Is there a public API or documentation?

https://tools.sidus.link/openapi/docs/usage

Anything else?

I've just found out they released an app to control via macOS or PC. Before you could only control it via their phone/tablet app which was annoying since I hate controlling devices via phone/tablet ONLY. They also added support with Elgato Stream deck.

It seems you need to download the mac/PC app and run it and then it looks like you can apply for Open API access. I'm assuming the device will need to stay on to act like a bridge for your Amaran Device to the API, (but I'm not fully sure).

I reversed the BLE mesh protocol and made an home assistant integration. Requires a $5 ESP32 so that you can connect to the mesh network without having your computer on at all times https://github.com/wesbos/amaran-BLE-control
