An OSA user came across this video about using Google Now with home automation.

Pretty neat, especially with phones like the Moto-X that accept voice commands even when the screen is turned off.
The user got this method working with OSA but thought of some improvements for better integration. A part of his post is quoted below.

I actually got it working but it has a couple of problems with this approach.
1) it relies on tasker and autovoice, both of which are paid apps
2) you have to set up a tasker task for every voice command you want to work (this is alot of work especially for those who already have pattern matches set up in OSA)
So I got to work making the OSA android app a plugin for the Google Search API. I can now do google now searches and have it sent to OSA to process. Now I wish I had a moto X with the always on listening (my stepson does and its really cool having your phone off and laying on the table and say 'OK Google turn on kitchen light').
