Supplies

  • Arduino C++ sketch running on an ESP8266EX D1 Mini from Lolin running @ 160MHz
  • Raspberry + Home Assistant for Web GUI, automations and MQTT server
  • Bosch BME680 environmental sensor (temp, humidity, air quality, air pressure)
  • SR501 PIR sensor for motion detection
  • TTP223 capacitive touch buttons
  • SD1306 OLED 128x64 pixel 0.96"
  • 1000uf capacitor for 5V power stabilization
  • 5V 220V relè used to turn ON/OFF furnance
  • IR emitter/receiver to manage Air Conditioner (you can use a simple IR LED, with no transistor/capacitor IR range is reduced)
  • Google Home Mini for Voice Recognition
