Smart Home Gets A Custom Keypad Controller
Voice assistants and smartphones are often the go-to interfaces for modern smart home systems. However, if you fancy more direct physical controls, you can go that route as well. To that end, [Salim Benbouziyane] whipped up a nifty keypad to work with his Home Assistant setup.
The build is based on an ESP32 microcontroller, which has wireless hardware onboard to communicate with the rest of [Salim’s] Home Assistant setup. Using the ESPHome firmware framework as a base, the microcontroller is connected to a four-by-three button keypad array, built using nice clicky key switches. There’s also an indicator light on top as a system status indicator. A fingerprint scanner provides an easy way for users to authenticate when disarming the alarm.
Security and speed were the push for [Salim] to whip up this system. He found it difficult to disarm his alarm in a hurry when fumbling with his phone, and the direct keypad entry method was far more desirable.
Sometimes, the easiest route to the smart home of your dreams is to just build the exact solutions you need. Video after the break.

Dopo il Venezuela pensava si fare la stessa cosa con l'Iran, credeva di mettere le mani nella marmellata ma si é accorto che non era marmellata ma me**a e ora pretente l'aiuto di quelli che ha sempre mazziato, peraltro minacciando chi non va ad aiutarlo.

@aeva @jalefkowit in a residential wood timbered thing, i think the recommendation is under your kitchen table if it is strong. whatever gets you away from glass is usually good too. your house getting picked up and whisked away isn’t really what you are trying to protect from, its cuts and bumps from flying debris

Have you looked out the window today?

@aeva I am super out of practice with this but having lived in a mobile home in North Dakota for a while as a kid- during watch you need to check if the local shelter is open (in our case the trailer park manager's basement), crack open the windows and unplug unneeded electrical appliances and at warning if you could, go to the shelter, if not, sit in the bathtub. I have no idea these days if most of that was actually useful information.
@jalefkowit good luck, that is no fun at all!

Cosa può offrire l'Europa agli USA, se non obbedienza?
Cosa ha da offrire l'Europa all'Iran se non obbedienza agli USA e la propria irrilevanza?
Così mi chiedo quali possibilità ha l'Europa di intervenire con la diplomazia, se non ha niente da offrire
