Wake Screen on Camera Movement Detection

[Kevin McAndrew]

Hi, is there any means to wake the screen on a tablet when the camera detects movement? (it's the camera detecting movement aspect that I'm not sure how to achieve)?

There's no built-in block for it, try using a camera app support the plug-in API, e.g.:

or otherwise supports automation, e.g.:

Thanks Henrik that second app in particular looks to have potential for what I need (I want to wake the screen on my tablet - that will be running a home automation dashboard (lights etc.) - when someone is in front of it) 👍
