When we have gathered everything, we must set up speaker or microphone Install the operating system for the microcomputer or by using the microSD. Like the rest of the home automation projects on this list, we can

weather station

control room temperature, humidity or CO2. A perfect device for a kids room, for example, or if you want to know whether you should install a purifier. We will find a list of required equipment or elements and other “optionals”. When you’ve got the tools, you’ve got to reach for it: making our gadget shaping box.

We have to put everything in place, build different circuits, develop software… we’ll get a station that Transfers data to computer with temperature monitoring, Moisture … But, in addition, the screen will show us in real time what is happening at that moment.

plant rotator

What is this plant rotation system for? So that the sun or light does not always give them the same place. It rotates and you don’t have to worry if the light never shines on one side. It’s useful and not too difficult to do If you want a home automation project for your Raspberry Pi. In fact, its author assures that he did it as part of an “Introduction to Construction” class. We will need a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B and a series of pots to help us get the light for the plants.

It’s simple, we’ll put a series of motors and 3D . a business base with that we can use to plant our planter and it starts rotating.

pet food and water dispenser

There are many automatic feeders and even smart pet feeders that allow us to leave food and water for cats and dogs when we are not supposed to be at home. But if you’re a handyman, you can make your own using a Raspberry Pi.

the first thing we’ll find material needed will be In great detail: buttons, a motor, an LED screen, a water level sensor, two force detection resistors, two distance measurement sensors, a Raspberry Pi 4 and more. Also you can find the link to buy it.

When we have this, we start doing this project which is far more complex than the others on this list and in which we have to do Start by making a circuit for our automatic feeder, We also need to create a database and finally the box which will be the structure of the device.

for outdoor

They not only work in your kitchen or your bedroom if you want home automation projects with the Raspberry Pi, but there are options for controlling outside as well.

Air Control with AirPi

If you are one of those people who are concerned about air quality at home and outside, we can use AirPi. AirPi is a Project that allows to build air quality meters. This is not a project in itself that we must buy piece by piece, but we can buy the complete pack with everything needed in the kit to make it.

it is able to record Information on humidity, pressure, temperature, nitrogen dioxide, carbon monoxide… Although many purifiers do this automatically, you can make it yourself with a Raspberry microcomputer and all the information available on the AirPi website.

security camera

we can make a security camera with quick security cam for rpi project which we find on one of the best websites for finding ideas for microcomputers, Instructables. We can read step by step how we should configure the computer or what are the “supply needed” to be able to do so. in this matter, Requires Raspberry Pi Zero With built-in wireless connection, a webcam and an LED.

Once we find what we need, we start by following the steps. We are building and connecting the device so that everything is in its place. We will find pictures with process and we can download guide in PDF.

other projects

there too Other Fun Projects We can with Raspberry Pi. They are not the kind of home automation projects they are, but they are original and curious ideas that can give your home a better touch with talking devices or digital frames you create.

talking toaster

This is not a home automation project But it is a fun project and one of the most successful instructables. A toaster that speaks and gestures with raised eyebrows. This is not the most useful if you are looking for a smart home, but it is something fun that will give a smart touch to your kitchen so that you can have a good time or have more curious and fun decorations at home. Can it be used to make toast? No.

You can watch the process step by step in the pictures or A summary video about How to make this toaster or how can we program audio step by step.

Photo frame

If you want a smart decoration you can have a photo frame with raspberry pi. A great gift to give to relatives if you have a multi-inch screen and want to take advantage of it. To give as a gift, at the office or at home … on the instructables website we canFollow the instructions step by step. It’s True That It’s Not a Do-It-Yourself Home Automation Projecthave a better home Or something practical with which to control the windows or lower the blinds, but it is a way to give an original touch to those who want to see their photos.

To use it, a Raspberry Pi with a seven-inch screen, an SD card, the Pixion OS operating system is used … and all instructions with step-by-step photos for assembly or summary from the web can be viewed. Video. One of the advantages is that Promise to be ready in less than half an houra.
