Home Assistant makes the Raspberry Pi fit for the Z-Wave world
Conclusions and Outlook
The smart home system consisting of Z-Wave components, a Raspberry Pi, the RaZberry module, and Home Assistant implements a newcomer-friendly home automation setup. Only standardized components are used and controlled by open source software that does not require a connection to the cloud.
For advanced users, the solution also opens up the possibility of programming more extensive automations that do not require prefabricated industrial components. This flexibility allows more ambitious hobbyists to further expand the smart home and integrate additional functions at a manageable cost.
