Author here. Thanks for the shout out. As AcidBurnNSA said, Home Assistant is free, fully open-source and fully community driven - no company involved. We have over 240 components and platforms to include a wide range of products and services: https://home-assistant.io/components/ https://home-assistant.io/components/ If you're attending OpenIoT Summit in San Diego, I'll be speaking tomorrow about Home Assistant 1:35pm - 2:25pm in Harbor Ballroom F: http://openiotelc2016.sched.org/event/6DBd/automating-your-home-with-home-assistant-pythons-answer-to-the-internet-of-things-paulus-schoutsen-appfolio http://openiotelc2016.sched.org/event/6DBd/automating-your-h...

Man, I work about a block from there and would've registered in a heartbeat had I known about the conference. The talk sounds fantastic. Any idea if they sell day-of tickets? I don't see them anywhere but figured I may as well ask.

  I don't know if they sell day tickets. All videos will be recorded so you should be able to watch it online. I'm planning to give a similar talk soon at a Python SD user group meeting to practice for my PyCon 2016 talk. You can find my sliders for tomorrow here: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1P2WsmwGSSni4gAriY5IA0-m-FUGO1kno3gIkRYz20Kw/edit#slide=id.p https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1P2WsmwGSSni4gAriY5IA...

    That's so cool! Something about the slides not being released yet made me want to read them more. It's Wikileaks of legitimate content =) Good luck with your work, it looks really useful and interesting. I feel this is what we all dreamed up in the early internet years while watching Star Trek. Digital controls for everything, and not being beholden to others for the way in which we manage the controls. I'm also interested in electricity monitors but I think that's a separate thing.

    from both the slides and the demo UI, you've got a much stronger design sense than the average open source project. Lucky users!

  Damnit. I also would love to attend, had I known about it in advance enough to take the coaster in.

Even if this is complex for the average homeowner theres an opportunity to start your own business setting this up for no tech savy homeowners in your locale.
