Off the shelf, 100% TLS/SSL, Production Grade Cloud Based Iot Automation Solution
This project basically automates all steps to a similar setup to the presented on the video above. It aims to provide a DIY Lights Automation system with components you can find online with a really easy installation process. It can provide up to 64 light channels you can control from anywhere in the world. Your data is 100% encrypted. All devices report back to our cloud running on https://iot.cescoferraro.xyz where you receive REAL-TIME updates of the current state of all channels. You can name them, schedule half of them to shutdown at a specific schedule. Turn it all on in 10 minutes. You house, your rules.
