A collection of apps and dashboards to act as an 'at a glance' home interface
- This will be in the vein of a raspberry pi smart mirror, except without the mirror, and a lot more UI and functionality
- There will be a monitor, raspberry pi, arduino & several sensors (that I kind of already have laying around for the arduino), and some hardware buttons for screen navigation.
- Data will come from a variety of sources.
This will be a mix of:
- IoT
- Raspberry Pi 3 for primary server: https://www.raspberrypi.org/
- Arduino for some of the sensor I/O that the apps will control
- JavaScript, HTML, CSS
- For the UI: http://googlecreativelab.github.io/coder/
- Python (maybe)
- For some of the computation
Five screens to represent the various 'systems' I want to keep track of:
- Calendar - A calendar so that everyone in our home can know what's going on
- Maintenance - This view will aim to capture the essentials of home and device maintenance info
- It will try to show dates and items such as auto maintenance, lawn care cycles, home air filter, etc
- Finances - Will require fingerprint for access
- Financial dashboard showing income, expenses, and savings goals at a glance
- Fingerprint reader: https://www.sparkfun.com/products/11792
- Food & Shopping
- Considering including InStock as one of the screens
- https://github.com/vsmithy/instock-native
- Combined View - Shows something from each of the 4 screens.
