details

The main idea of this project is to control your own home by using iPhone without expensive control systems.

What you need to build Andruino:

iPhone/iPod touch/iPad
Arduino hardware board (Arduino Uno/Due/Mega2560/Others)
- Wikipedia link
- Arduino homepage – documentation/sdk
- DIfferent types of Arduino (RAM/FLASH/PINS/ETC.)
Sensor supported by Andruino libraries:
- Current Measurement/Monitoring & Protection: Non-Invasive Current Sensor – 30A (AC) – (used to measure home power consumption)
- Adafruit Thermocouple Amplifier MAX31855 breakout board
  - MAX31855 Datasheet
- Adafruit DHT basic temperature and humidity sensor – (for now this library is not compatible with Arduino Due)
  - DHT11
  - DHT22: more precision respect to DHT11
  - how to connect
- TMP36 – Temperature Sensor (analog out)
  - Datasheet
Sensors (generic digital or analog)
- Magnetic sensors (to detect the door opening)
- Brightness (to detect lights on/off)
- Various type of sensors
- SoftPwm library (An Arduino and Wiring Library to produce PWM signals on any arbitrary pin)
Controls
- Relays
- PWM peripherals
- Actuators
NRF24L network
- See the specific page

ZigBee wireless
