This is an overview of how I'm using various hardware and javascript to bring different levels of automation, tracking and realtime information about where I live into my face, while dealing with problems like covering large areas with mesh networks, bad country internet, and the stupidity of chickens.
It will be an illustrated journey detailing bits I've built, am building, and will build to make living in the woods in the rain more fun.
Featuring
robotic hot boxes
customized doorbells
getting remote feedback when there's connection problems
chicken coop monitors
BEES
possibly bear drones
Starting with an idea to have customized doorbells, this talk will cover the home automation stuff upon which I'm currently working.
