How I will build my own DIY smart home sensor Part 1 - (Arduino Uno Programming for Beginners) In this video, I'll guide you through the creation of a smart home sensor system to be mounted on the ceiling in every room of our house. Intro: While there are many smart home solutions on the market, I opted for a fully open-source, DIY approach to maintain complete control over our home and ensure I can replace components if they break. The core of our home assistant system is an MQTT message broker, which tracks all states in the house. Currently, I control the house with wall switches and a web browser connected to a local instance of Home Assistant. However, I aim to make the house smarter. Sensor Details: I'll demonstrate how to install various sensors, including: Temperature and humidity sensors for optimizing the heating system. CO2 sensors for optimizing air ventilation. Motion sensors for automatic lighting. IR receiver and transmitter for remote control capabilities. Brightness sensors to manage lighting needs. Noise sensors for clap-activated lights. Bluetooth for controlling specific devices. Optional IR matrix sensors for presence detection. Optional RF receiver for supporting inexpensive RF buttons. Join me as I enhance our home with these smart sensors, combining required smoke detectors with advanced monitoring and control features.
