Integrating a motion detector with Home Assistant or Hassio

If we want to place motion sensors and perform actions based on detecting movements, we will be able to use some cheap Chinese IR sensors that are powered by a couple of batteries, they are small and disguised… In this document we will see how to add them in Home Assistant and how to configure some actions, For example, If we're not at home, Well, send us a Telegram message notifying us of a movement, or at a certain time turn on some LEDs to illuminate.

Integrating Sonoff Bridge RF with Hassio – Home Assistant and testing a magnetic door/window sensor

Start the march! The first step in my case (after having Home Assistant installed), will centralize and receive all radio frequency signals with the fabulous Sonoff Bridge RF; and then send the sensor data to the MQTT Broker that we will mount in Home Assistant. That is, the Sonoff Bridge in this case will listen by RF and transmit by Wifi to the Hassio any data that interests us.

Raspberry Pi – Relay use, X10 and Motion Detector

  In this document we are going to launch a Raspberry Pi with some very practical functions that can make us think about implementing a home automation system, Super simple and cheap. On the one hand, we will connect a relay that will allow us to switch circuits like the lights at home, and on the other a motion sensor that will allow us to perform the function we are interested in, such as turning on those same lights and therefore not having to turn on the lights in the house anymore =)
