Setting up and running your own Raspberry Pi home automation system is both fun and useful, and lets you have control of your devices without depending on ?the cloud.? I did a quick overview of my home automation setup here, as well as how to prepare devices for integration with Tasmota in a Part 2 followup. In this part 3 we?ll put everything together with Home Assistant (HA), my chosen Raspberry Pi home automation platform.

If you are not already driving an electric vehicle (EV)?hybrid electric vehicle (HEV), plug-in hybrid vehicle (PHEV), or all-electric vehicle?chances are, you may be soon. Range anxiety has become a thing of the past. You can now help preserve the environment without worrying about being stuck in it.

If you sit down and make a list of promising technologies, the two names that would most likely top it are Artificial Intelligence and the Internet of Things. Although both the technologies are powerful individually, AI as a source of intelligence, and IoT being the only technology making inter-device connections possible - their convergence becomes a catalyst of smart connections.

As awareness of the transformative nature of 5G is increasing, the industry is slowly waking up to the enormous challenge of securing not only the networks but also all the things these networks connect and the vital data they carry. When it comes to the Internet of Things (IoT), the challenges of security and the stakes involved couldn?t be more significant.

If 2020 has shown us anything, it?s that the line between work and home has become incredibly blurry, dissolving the means for compartmentalizing our lives. How do we do validation at home? And not just until the pandemic is over, but long-term, sustainably?do we have a plan to translate the lab to the kitchen table, or the home office, or the garage?

In safety-critical software development, unit testing is mandated by standards. However, not all tests are built equal. This paper discusses approaches you can take with your unit testing to maximize their contribution to the development process.
