Multimedia device for watch movies in high definition, listen to music, etc.Īnd you, Mariete, what uses do you make of the Raspberry Pi for home automation?.Home automation controller (yes, this is what we are going to talk about here).Well, among many others, you can use a Raspberry Pi to: Well, yes, but, you will ask me, my friend: What is a Raspberry Pi for?
Also, it has no fan, so it is silent 100%, ideal for it to be turned on 24 × 7. In addition, its consumption is negligible (on the 5 watts at full power), so it is ideal to be able to leave it on permanently without ever turning it off (which is normal in home automation systems, of course). The Raspberry Pi is a very inexpensive small computer, ideal for use in home automation applications, it can cost from about 35€ (although we will talk about that later) and it has enough power for much more than you can imagine. The price and versatility of the Raspberry Pi make it ideal for a myriad of applications.īut let's go slowly. The community is extremely innovative and all these projects make impressive use of various features of this maker board.As you probably know, if you've read some of my writings on this blog, the little Raspberry Pi mini-computer is one of my favorite platforms for everything to do with home automation and smart home. And, that’s because it consumes much less power compared to the flagship Pi boards and makes it ideal to build battery powered gadgets.Īfter scouring Instructables, Reddit, Hackaday, other maker oriented communities and my own experience with Pi, I have compiled a list of projects built around the Raspberry Pi Zero and the Raspberry Pi Zero W.
In fact, a lot of people use the Pi Zero in the final version of the project after prototyping on a different full-sized Pi board.
The small form factor of the Raspberry Pi Zero W enables a new range of projects.
