OKdo is a UK-based global technology company focused on IoT offerings for hobbyists, educators, and entrepreneurs. Their idea is to make it easy to get a private and secure “web of things” environment up and running in either home or classroom. OKdo chose to build this kit around the #Mozilla #WebThings Gateway

Monitor and control all your smart home devices via a unified web interface. Build your own smart hub on a rPi or on a Turris Omnia router.

This new release comes with support for thermostats and smart locks, as well as an updated add-ons system including extension add-ons, which enable developers to extend the gateway user interface. There are also localization settings now so that you can choose your country, language, time zone and unit preferences.

Almond routers include home automation and network capabilities in one package.

This #Python project emulates a #Hue Bridge. It's Free software under #GPLv3 and #Apache licenses. After Installation, it is possible to control and manage

– ZigBee lights (using Raspbee module, original Hue Bridge or IKEA Tradfri Gateway),
– Mi-Light bulbs (using MiLight Hub),
– Neopixel strips (WS2812B and SK6812) and
– any cheap ESP8266 based bulb by replacing the firmware with a custom one.

Written in Python, making it suitable to run on all small devices such as the RaspberryPi.

Arduino sketches are provided for the Hue Dimmer Switch, Hue Tap Switch and Hue Motion Sensor.

Lights are two-way synchronized so any change made from original Sensors and Switches will also be applied to the Bridge emulator.
