The
complete open source intelligent home automation system is called
OpenHouseware (or, OH for short). An OH system is
comprised of several key elements including the OH C3
Server which runs on Linux and manages your entire house
and system. The C3 Server communications with a
few other important elements, including the DAVIS IP/RF
Router and the SWAGGER wireless aggregator. These
elements connect directly to your remote sensors (called
OpenHousewares, or OHw for short) and send signals to
the C3 server for processing. The system uses IPv4
internally and operates over Ethernet, Wireless, RF, and
direct wired connections to provide a total home
management solution that you can manage over your own PC. Best of all, it's all Open
Source and DIY so you can start building your dream home
automation system on your terms, any way you like. |

Here's
a sensor for your perusal: a temperature sensor! Use it
to measure the temperature outside or inside your smart home!
The unique thing about this temp sensor is that the
temperature is linear with the output voltage at 1C per 10 mV,
so reading 250mV = 25C.
