The motivation of this project is to monitor and control several energy-sources like wind generators or solar panels. It will develop to a full and low-cost smarthome-solution, but for now we started to capture the weather as a basis to calculate the efficiency of the energy-sources.

The client-server architecture consists of several clients (ie. the weather-station, a station to measure the power consumption, the charge controller, rgb-controller for the lights, shutter controller, etc.) and the server, which is connected to a remote database and will be visualized/controlled on desktop computers, tablets and/or smartphones.

The project is based on the current version of the qt classlibrary (v5.4) and qtcreator as the ide!

Features

  • client/server architecture with raspberrys (and optional arduinos)
  • weather station with wind (direction/speed), light, humidity, pressure, rain and temperature
