Problem
Consumer smart-home apps silo every device brand into its own app with no unified history or automation.
Solution
Self-hosted stack: Home Assistant as the brain, MQTT as the bus, PostgreSQL for history, ThingsBoard for visualisation, Zigbee + LoRaWAN for sensor coverage.
Features
- ▸Unified dashboard across device brands
- ▸Long-range LoRaWAN sensors beyond WiFi reach
- ▸Historical analytics in PostgreSQL
- ▸Automations across protocols
Architecture
Zigbee and LoRaWAN gateways publish to MQTT; Home Assistant handles automations; ThingsBoard renders dashboards over PostgreSQL history.
What I built
- ▸Full stack integration
- ▸Sensor network
- ▸Custom dashboards
Challenges
- ▸Protocol interop and reliable message delivery
Results
Stable multi-protocol home telemetry and automation.
