LE DIFFERENZE TRA Z-WAVE E ZIGBEE NELLA SMART HOME
Tumblr media
Z-Wave e Zigbee sono due popolari tecnologie di comunicazione wireless comunemente utilizzate nei sistemi di automazione domestica. Entrambe le tecnologie sono progettate per consentire ai dispositivi di comunicare tra loro ed essere controllati da remoto, ma ci sono alcune differenze significative tra i due.Una delle principali differenze tra Z-Wave e Zigbee è il modo in cui operano. Z-Wave utilizza una rete mesh, il che significa che ogni dispositivo nella rete può comunicare direttamente con qualsiasi altro dispositivo nella rete. Ciò consente una connessione più stabile e affidabile, ma significa anche che la portata della rete è limitata dal numero di dispositivi nella rete.Zigbee, invece, utilizza una rete a stella, in cui tutti i dispositivi comunicano con un hub centrale. Ciò consente una portata più ampia, poiché l'hub può comunicare con dispositivi più lontani, ma significa anche che la rete dipende maggiormente dall'hub centrale e può essere meno stabile se l'hub va offline.Leggi anche: è meglio la domotica cablata o wireless?Un'altra differenza tra le due tecnologie è la quantità di dati che possono trasmettere. Z-Wave è generalmente più veloce nella trasmissione dei dati rispetto a Zigbee, ma Zigbee è migliore nella gestione di grandi quantità di dati. Ciò rende Z-Wave più adatto per il controllo di dispositivi semplici, come interruttori e prese, mentre Zigbee è migliore per dispositivi più complessi, come termostati e telecamere di sicurezza.In termini di compatibilità, i dispositivi Z-Wave e Zigbee generalmente non sono compatibili tra loro. Ciò significa che se si dispone di un sistema Z-Wave, sarà necessario utilizzare i dispositivi Z-Wave e, se si dispone di un sistema Zigbee, sarà necessario utilizzare i dispositivi Zigbee. Tuttavia, sono disponibili alcuni hub universali in grado di supportare dispositivi Z-Wave e Zigbee, che possono essere una buona opzione se si desidera utilizzare un mix di dispositivi di diversi produttori.In definitiva, la scelta tra Z-Wave e Zigbee dipenderà dalle tue esigenze specifiche e dal tipo di dispositivi che desideri utilizzare. Se stai cercando un modo semplice e affidabile per controllare alcuni dispositivi, Z-Wave potrebbe essere la scelta migliore. Se desideri connettere un gran numero di dispositivi e devi trasmettere grandi quantità di dati, Zigbee potrebbe essere un'opzione migliore.Per avere eventuali informazioni sulla tecnologia migliore da scegliere per la tua smart home, non esitare a CONTATTARCI.Orizon S.r.l. - Domotica San Donà di Piave - System Integrators per l'automazione dei sistemi intelligenti domotici, multimediali e professionali come il Building Management System, connessi all'IOT.

Assisting the Open Home

Assisting the Open Home
BY PAULUS SCHOUTSEN – 24 FEB 2023 – VIEW ONLINE → It's the end of February, time for another roundup of the latest and greatest things for your smart home that improve its privacy, choice and durability.
This month felt like a catch-up month. A lot of projects like Matter, performance tuning and Voice are ongoing. Some things can already be experienced but the best is still ahead of us.
Year of the Voice - Chapter 1
2023 is the Year of the Voice for Home Assistant and it kicked it off last month with Chapter 1: Assist. It's been a great start and community contributions have been out of this world: 22 contributed languages at launch!
Home Assistant's Year of the Voice has as goal to allow people to control their home in their own language. With Chapter 1 the team wanted to create a foundation that was already somewhat usable. This will allow the community to start playing with it, extending it and discover new use cases.
The team focused on "Assist", a Home Assistant feature to process natural language. For voice input it relies on Android watches, Apple watches and Siri. The natural language processing is, as one expects from the Open Home, extendable with your own sentences.
Read the full Chapter 1 announcement here.
Natural language doesn't have to be limited to just voice. Paul came up with a blueprint that allows you to create calendar events with automations based in natural language.
Import Blueprint Screenshot of a calendar with automations Put your automations in your calendar Zigbee interference caused by USB 3.0
A lot of users build their smart home around a Raspberry Pi. It's quite popular to expand the storage using an external hard drive connected to the Raspberry Pi via USB 3. What most users don't know is that USB 3 causes enormous interference with any Zigbee device or stick that comes close, to a point that it no longer works.
Gabriela recently joined the Nabu Casa team as a technical documentation writer and has been focusing on documentation to help users avoid common pitfalls like these. She updated the documentation for the Home Assistant SkyConnect including this 30 second video that shows how bad the issue is:
Want to help fund development of the Open Home? Join Home Assistant Cloud by Nabu Casa. It funds the Open Home and supports the development of Home Assistant, ESPHome, Z-Wave JS and much more.
mnCast: open alternative to Chromecast Audio
Last year we teamed up with Raspiaudio, a DIY audio company, and did a whole event about audio for the Open Home. Their ESP32-based products run Squeezelite-ESP32, an open source firmware that supports playing audio via AirPlay, Spotify Connect and Bluetooth (and fully supported by Home Assistant!).
Overview of the mnCast They just introduced a new product that is worth mentioning: mnCast. Instead of containing a speaker itself, it contains an 3.5mm audio jack and mini-TOSLINK connector. This allows you to turn your existing receiver into the backbone of audio for your open home.

Blueprint: Notify when Zigbee/Zwave/any battery device has gone offline Explanation This blueprint will alert you when any of your Zigbee or Zwave battery powered devices have fallen off the network, aka gone “Unavailable”. It is not necessary to specify a list of devices to check, as this template draws heavily from the excellent work of Sbyx, who came up with the id…

Other noteworthy news
MyCroft stops development. Company reduced to 4 people and plans to reduce further. The mission was great but the venture, sadly, was not. Home Assistant shows what parts of Matter already work. Bridge support and major performance improvements are coming for their March release. Tasmota has started on Matter support. It's not usable yet, but the first piece has been merged. Tip!

Some unfortunate news: Mycroft as a project is *likely* (not guaranteed) to be shutting down somewhat soon - they laid off the vast majority of their team supporting the project. A number of people have spun up Open Voice OS, which builds off of the Mycroft guts.
Home Assistant continues to be a vibrant community that's grown since then, and zigbee/zwave continue to grow and get used more and more. I plan on replacing ny current smart bulbs with zwave ones at some point, because fuck connecting shit like that to WiFi (for the security reasons).
While I mostly just use my Google Home Mini to turn my lights on and off, check weather, and set alarms... it's just such a useful tool that I wouldn't want to axe it outright. I WANT to find open source, secure, community-backed alternatives and ways to give me more without entrenching me in Google more.
Voice assistants, robot vacuums, a number of "smart" appliances and such are genuine accessibility improvements for many. I loathe that they're distrusted because we live in a society. I would personally love a robot vacuum because perpetually clean floors are nice, but I don't want to have to connect it to the network or whatever just so it can work because companies like iRobot have been known to map your home by vacuum data.
I hate that accessibility is being put at odds with personal privacy and security. Trade-offs must be made, yes, but I don't think they should be this level of bad. Surely there's a way to keep 90% of the functions of existing tools while vastly improving security and privacy. There has to be a way to do that in a consumer-friendly and accessible way that is as similar to the current experience of setting up a new Amazon Echo or Nest Hub or whatever as possible.
I'm confident we have that technology.
I said it in the notes on the last post but I’m gonna say it again.
I’m married to someone with severe memory problems. Automation of household appliances & systems helps him a lot and helps me a lot because it reduces the number of things I have to keep in my brain at all times. I love doors that lock themselves, being able to schedule dog food being delivered, a thermostat I can manipulate from wherever. Beyond my little bubble it should be noted that voice controlled appliances can be really good for people with mobility concerns. Appliances that can measure and talk and remember little tasks can be such a blessing for people.
I will never forgive Amazon and Google for taking technologies that could be really helpful and weaponizing them, and fuck everybody who acts like its some kind of conspiracy theory that those devices are spying on you. You absolutely should be distrustful of those devices but just make sure you’re getting angry at the right people.

By • Olalekan Fagbade BREAKING; Five [5] Men sentenced to death by hanging over culpable homicide Makurdi, Nov 8, 2023 (NAN) A Makurdi High Court Judge, Justice T.A Kume on Wednesday, sentenced five men to death by hanging culpable homicide. The men, Terna Zwave, Jonathan Gbajime, John Bur, Gabriel Ianna and Kwaghgba Zaki who lived at Anchoha Village, Gwer-East Local Government Area of Benue were charged before a Makurdi Magistrates’ Court in 2021. They were charged with criminal conspiracy, criminal trespass, mischief and culpable homicide punishable under sections 97, 349, 329 and 222 of the penal code laws of Benue, 2004. The prosecution said on Oct 5, 2021, the men conspired, trespassed on a land belonging to one Oliver Jato and cut down trees in order to make charcoal. Prosecution said the defendants were then confronted by Abraham Hwange, Peter Agber and the deceased which resulted in a violent scuffles. He said in the convicts beat Biija to death. The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the case was eventually transferred to the High Court by legal advice. When the case came up, the first defendant, Zwave pleaded guilty while all others pleaded not guilty. The defendants testified for themselves without calling any witness while prosecution called seven witnesses to prove its case. Prosecution counsel, R.B.N Amenger in his final written address submitted that the rest defendants plea of not guilty was only a mere denial. Amenger argued that the defendants had completely failed to raise a defence as to the commission of all the offences established but rather dwell on mere denials and technicalities which he said were not material or fatal to the case of the prosecution. Defence counsel, D.U Liam in his final written addresses said that the prosecution had not proved its case beyond reasonable doubt to warrant sentence of the defendants. However, the trial Justice ruled that prosecution had proved its case beyond all reasonable doubts, saying that denying commission of offence did not amount to not committing it. Kume said the burden of prove rests on the defense counsel which he failed to achieve. Kume said he had heard the plea for mercy by the defendants and the statement by their counsel in which the Lord’s prayers was contained in the words. He stated that the law for which he was bound to apply in the case did not have the grace contained in the Lord’s prayer. He therefore, sentenced them to death by hanging on the four counts charge.(NAN) #FiveMensentencedtodeathbyhangingoverculpablehomicide

#how do I be like you#I thought I was getting into some pretty advanced smarthome bullshittery but i am like little baby watch this
you can tell this is my current monomania, because i have gone off in the weeds:
very specifically, live with someone who's willing to set up the fiddly bits of home assistant and who thinks it's fun when other stuff gets automated around them, but that doesn't always generalize
a little less specifically, i think they have made some improvements in the startup experience for home assistant in the last year, which i didn't get to reap the benefits of/experience of because we'd set it up ages ago.
---
most broadly, i find it easiest to think about stuff in terms of "what necessarily happens when this is going on?", "what's easy to detect?", "what can i make happen in response?", "is this something with a set of disjoint states? what makes it change from state to state?", "what's good enough?".
when the cat uses the box, he's made the box heavier, he's moving around, he's a warm object, he's jumped over the edge of the bathtub to get in, ... The easiest/cheapest thing to detect, in his case, is that he's a warm body moving around, because passive infrared motion sensors are pretty cheap. The one we're using sucks and is kinda old and only detects things within like a foot, which is good enough, because it detects the boy and it means that the humans don't trip it when we're at the sink.
(But alas, all we can do in response to this is increment a counter and notify me that the box is dirty.)
the bagel auomation( set) is very state-y; the thing that makes it go is Breakfast Status changing from "bagels frozen", "bagels defrosting", "bagels warming", "bagels out of oven", and "not bagels"; thinking of it like that collapses a bunch of complicated conditions to mostly just monitoring when some doors open and moving to the next state.
---
writing this i was like "we don't really automate many actions" and then i remembered that i had completely forgotten all our lights & fans & music, and some windows, are attached to home assistant.
there's a spectrum from "remote control" to "automation", and the middle of that spectrum is very useful: when this does something, that does something. if the ceiling lights turn on, so should the table lamps. if the windows open, the hvac turns off. when the office door closes, the white noise machine turns on.
edit: also it's very useful to offload remembering things to an exobrain. when was the cat's box cleaned? when did i last clean the dishwasher filter? when did i last run the vacuum? when did i last take my meds? this is somewhat orthogonal to automation, but all the things that make automation work make this work.
home assistant's deal is that it makes all the damn semi/proprietary things work together more better (yeah yeah xkcd 927, but it does work!).
zigbee and zwave are great. every bone in the body will resist adding One More Standard, but it turns out these standards are fairly well optimized for having 50 shitty little doodads on the network in a way that wifi isn't. zwave is in some important technical senses better, but zigbee is cheaper and good enough. having said that, we have a bunch of local wifi devices and they're very useful.
the other big feature is that everything can be locally controlled: if someone cuts the line leading to our house, isolating us from the internet (horror of horrors), everything here still works, and nothing phones home. we even had a power outage at one point, but the raspberry pi running home assistant was on a ups, so we could still control things that were battery powered, like blinds.
---
you also have to have a sort of balance between tolerance and intolerance for jank. things will be goofy and halfassed. only some of it will be your fault! fix what's efficient to fix, ignore the rest.
(there are so many tradeoffs in design. i can see why most of these halfassed things have happened. most of them seem like they can be repaired, refactored, redesigned! ... eventually.)
---
what do you have 5 co2 monitors for? i just think they're neat.
me: devices should be dumber
also me: the rice cooker should text me if I don’t hear it beeping
