Smart Home Projects on ESP8266
Ready-made projects for home automation
The concept of "Smart Home" is not only an ocean of possibilities, but also an ocean of complexities, where there are toothy nuances. We offer you to start with simple ready-made projects for home automation of the most urgent tasks, gradually diving into free swimming.
Open project schematics and drawings
You decide whether to order a ready-made smart home project or make it yourself. We give you the opportunity to make this choice. If you are familiar with Arduino and DIY, you will have no trouble assembling everything with your own hands.
Free local server for control
The server of your smart home is the most complex and important element. You can use our cloud server but not depend on it. Just set up your free local server via docker container when you're ready.
Automation + Security + Autonomy
Our concept is that these concepts work seamlessly in the absence of humans: Automation - defined work scenarios, Security - checkpoints, lockdowns and notifications, Autonomy - different levels of decision making according to the situation.
Distributed nodes within a single project
For example, one room climate control project may have multiple heaters and fans or air conditioners. Plus, multiple temperature and humidity sensors. This one project can be broken down into separate nodes so you don't have to pull wires from all the devices and sensors to one controller board.
A smart grid for interconnecting projects
Individual nodes can be combined into a single project, and the individual projects are combined into a Smart Grid. It ensures the integrity of the entire smart home and the intelligent behavior of all individual projects. You don't have to think through your smart home all at once. Just move from one task to the next!
Router as a universal gateway
Remote access to a smart home often utilizes a cloud service and requires the purchase of a vendor-specific and closed gateway. We use an open concept gateway with VPN connection on Mikrotik or OpenWrt routers.
Notifications via Telegram
Regardless of whether you use a local or cloud server, notifications about the status of your smart home are vital. By using a Telegram bot, you will always be sure that everything is going according to plan.
Progressive Web Apps
The concept of PWA is the ability to work with the smart home as a universal web application, which in two clicks is installed on both your personal computer and smartphone.
Swap your hard earned money for robots!
By implementing home automation, you participate in the process of taking social relations to the next level! Automation is the transformation of money from human labor to robot labor, freeing up your free time!
