Home automation and monitoring with idea ...
Home automation and monitoring with ideas I like: openHAB 1.0 - Home Automation For Geeks. One thing quite notable to me is the option for privacy in measuring:Persistence and Charting – Store your values and states anywhere you like: In a local database (classic or round-robin), in dedicated log files or even in an Internet-of-Things cloud service. Use the persisted data for defining complex automation logic or for dynamic chart generation.So you don't have to export all your data exactly logging your daily life to some external service. Very good! Lots better than all those devices that ship your data out first and give access to you and who else later, like the 'smart meter'. The current user-interface options are very modern-gadget centric (android mobile browser or apple mobile device browser) but given the fact that it also has a clearly defined REST api, developers can write other user interfaces.
