There used to be an IoT kettle that you could control via wifi. Unfortunately, some people have made it public on their home networks so that they can access it from anywhere in the world via unsecure telnet. There's still a bunch of them floating around online. Don't forget IoT controlled flag poles with cameras on them. You can literally sit anywhere in the world and watch a flag pole go up and down while their owners are panicking over their possessed flag.

Btw, forgot to mention in my other comment: This is definitely the kind of content I love to see. Please make more!

Great idea! I would totally watch that series, even if I can't apply it to my apartment.

Wendell: Can we build a better Internet of Things? also Wendell: *10 Minutes in and still talking about bricks* - love ya guys

Id really love to hear MORE about this stuff! Thanks for sharing.

Yes! I’ve been wanting this kind of monitoring. Wendell, I also geek out on home construction tech.

Super interested in this sort of thing. Keep up the good work! Hopefully we will see some more of this stuff soon!

As a design manager in construction (in Sweden), all I can say is that building automation equipment is stuck with technology from the 90-s, sometimes older. In one project the main data monitoring unit could not be programmed e-mail a data log in .txt format for plotting... what it does have is online remote access. So now a technician has to log on to check values and plot these manually...

This an absolutely awesome series concept and should definitely be pursued as a full thing! I can already see myself making a personal playlist of the series to use as a reference guide when building a house or renovating given houses are probably going to be dirt cheap in the coming months

This is an awesome idea for a video series. I'm all for it!

This is an epic video. Thanks for making it. Would love more updates on this system.

I’m 100% here for this content! Also, home tips like this for wiring and plumbing are fantastic. It blows my mind how often people will put off simple additions of modifications because “I gotta call an expert.”

I am excited after listening to all the possibilities he expressed .I can't believe it I was not the only one with such a dream . I believe my dream can only be made possible by Wendell as I tried setting up Linux and I may have lost some data just trying to understand basic . I wish he makes a simple easy to follow guide for this stuff .

Yes, please! This sounds like an awesome series! I know Ryan did his Home Security one as well which was awesome! The idea of rolling your own on this stuff sounds amazing. Everything Home Automation seems to always report back to Google or Amazon and all about selling your data and not actually helping you.

I loved this video. Waiting for a several part series on Level1Linux!

Im really into homeassistant on docker!!! Yeah I would love to watch your series. Look into MQTT and the tasmota firmware for ESP8266 devices!

YES PLEASE! More of this please! MOAR of all of it. thank you!

It seems like you've got a fair bit of interest in this series. I too would love to see something like this.

Thank you for this. I hope there is more to come as i am moving within the next year or so. I am planing to do some simple home automation that makes sense. You have opened my eye's to many possibilitys and so many things to consider.

I've always wanted something like that. You should definitely continue

@16:56 Wendell there is already a open protocol developed for this called BACnet! I used to install large building automation systems for Siemens with everything you’re describing fire systems, water, lighting, air dampers, control valves and lots and lots of sensors! There are BASpi controllers that will interface with standard BACNet devices!

I really like where this can go and look forward to this video series, Wendell. You've made some really great points about the application domains that IoT can provide the greatest value in the short, medium and long-term for home owners. I'm a data geek so collecting and analyzing the data from the IoT devices is super cool! A data dashboard is a great way to close off this series, especially a mobile enabled dashboard so that anyone can view their data from almost anywhere in near real-time.

Dude I live this idea. Please make this series, as many as possible!

When I learned that co2 had a bigger impact on cognitive ability than sleep at a certain levels, I wondered what my co2 is at home and if I could correlate that to my productivity. But as life happen I forgot about it, but now thanks to your video I hope to answer that question soon, thank you Wendel!

I love the idea of an IoT house, but I don't trust Google or Amazon in my house (Apple has a better track record but HomeKit is looking pretty anemic rn).

The problem is you have to think not only about yourself but the "general market" if you ever need to sell it. If you need to know how to navigate the open source community and have at least some electrical engineer skills to have maintain a house, that may all need to be torn out and replaced when the time comes to sell. Even if you could do it all yourself, it may be smart to outsource it to a local company (if you are lucky to have one around) that can do that sort of stuff, that way you can tell the buyer, in case of problems call them. But people hear the name like "Apple", Amazon or Apple, they have some confidence that they can get parts and support on it. That is why I have a dumb home and won't buy "smart" gadgets. If I do put something in, I do it with a plan to take it out when I need to sell.

Where I would I like to get automation is the air quality stuff I live near a coal power plant and go thru air purifiers like toilet paper . It's dusty here and CO2 levels get dangeriously high so not every one needs all the features . Edit: spell check

I work in the IoT space, and the phrase Internet of Shit coined from twitter is honestly the best way to put it. It is all shit, all the way, and i get a big old laugh by most of it, I always roll my eyes whenever I mention I'm an engineer in the IoT space, people then start talking about the smart fridges and coffee pots, the hardest thing in IoT is everyone with their stupid ideas, and what I refer to as "hand-job features". I greatly look forward to your series, you will probably see me in the comments again. You can get super deep into IoT devices like you mention for every little thing you can think of from the dumb consumer fridge to the machine learning industrial current monitors and I will love to see what you find and report back. Also, I love Pis, they are close to my heart, and you can get Pi compute modules to achieve a lot of the same goals, but you might consider in your IoT series to consider good ol' microcontrollers for a few more basic tasks. With a $4 ESP-32 (Which, there are so many options but this is a popular example) you get Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, all the crypto hardware for basic TLS, tons of libraries for MQTT or other basic network operations, low power sleep modes, two easy frameworks to write applications in, and unlike the Pi you have ADCs and DACs. Linux is fantastic but having a Linux install for every light switch or valve system gets to be a bit much. Some of these newer microcontrollers from Adafruit even support Python but I've always been perplexed by that option.

I've been wanting to do some smart home stuff and have ordered a few things like smart outlets, but a series on how to set up your own system to monitor things that matter sounds very interesting. 10/10 would watch

This sounds perfect, just purchased a unit and love the idea of monitoring all the things (that are important). I do this for work, monitoring our networks around the world with data pumped into Grafana. To find a useful reason to do it at home would be very interesting.

That all sounds like a lot of fun.

I love this! My fascination with technology is far from limited to computers. I also love electrical, plumbing, home diy, firearms, locksmithing, vehicle and diesel mechanics, aviation, etc.

Good ideas Wendell! Would love to see some home automation videos utilizing docker containers. With a Synology NAS would be the icing on the cake.

This is one of the best things I ever watched on youtube. Such an interesting topic, the rabbit hole is very deep indeed.

Would love to see more!

Home assistant is an insane piece of software in desperate need of some proper high quality videos! There's amazingly simple APIs for getting data from hass and you can even DIY IoT devices with MQTT. I've done some data science related stuff that took advantage to all of it and it went incredibly smoothly, definitely should look more into it.

Go for it! Great idea. Kinda like fully open source security camera system but for "all the things." Security and updates matter.

As a young architect in the mid-to-late 90's, working in the Northwest Territories (Canada), I marveled at how much more advanced the control systems were than down south. It used to be that controls were expensive and systems being controlled were cheap. Now it's the reverse. You used to have to have a very compelling business case for fancy control systems; the North had it. A school, for instance, on adfreeze piles through permafrost, with a three-tank system (domestic supply water, fire suppression, wastewater) can't be allowed to freeze. If the boiler fails, the guy who knows how to fix it lives three small towns away, which means accessible only by plane, and so needs an emergency alert six hours before temp drops below zero when it's -40 out. In 1997, that meant a multi-cassette tape system with pre-recorded failure messages, on a phone dialer, on a backboard full of monitoring equipment. The first phone number was dialed, then the applicable failure message played, repeated through the phone list, then start again at the top of the list. If the pipes froze, you mothballed the school until next summer, thawed everything, made your repairs, and told the kids to repeat last year, starting in September. Way overkill for down south, because the monitoring equipment was prohibitively expensive, but essential in Kugluktuk, or Inuvik, or Cambridge Bay.

Definitely interested in a series - please make one!

Def following this series

love this!!! love home DIY and tech.... yes, more content home/tech

Yes, make more of these. I've been thinking that you guys should make the transition to more of the DIY videos ever since Ryan did that home security system video.

Absolutely! I have been looking into home automation lately. I would love a video series building this up and use HomeAssistant and mycroft to control all of this.

I'm looking forward to the series! This sounds like a great idea :)

I would love to see this series. I am having an issue balancing my HVAC so I'm working on a project to use Pi zeros to log the temperature in multiple rooms at the same time. I would love a more long term setup. Hopefully I can do that based off this proposed series.

This will be fascinating! Home networking with home DIY renovation is a wonderful combo!

A waterline sensor that monitors the bathroom. A toilet flush will have a different usage profile from hand washing. You can then put an emergency light outside the door, and if someone flushes, but doesn't wash their hands, the light can go off. If you particle detector can detect poo smell, have a warning for when it is safe to go in.

An incredibly insightful video, thank you very much Wendell :)

seems like a great idea for a series of videos, making my own power monitor right now

If you have 3400$ to spend on a fridge, you've probably already committed several crimes against humanity.

I'm super interested in this topic! Would love to watch that kind of content! :)

Running Home Assistant, really happy with it. Looking forward to new vids on IOT!

Another interesting IOT project to pursue is one that tracks power per circuit(or plug if you really want granularity). I've twice setup devices that track power draw through the circuit breaker box and both times the results have been quite helpful. When setup in my friends shop it allowed him to quantify how much it costs to run their ancient fridges compared to newer units and also observe the efficiency change throughout the year as ambient temperatures changed.

THIS is why i subscribe, if you did MORE content like this more often i would patreon!

Sound like a very cool series idea. I'd love to be able to monitor all that data easily through a raspberry pi.

enjoyed that rant, will be watching to see if this goes further

I love this, I want to give you more money now. I have been trying to find good sensors that hook through serial as well, seems like you have more information about that. I wanted to build an outdoor sauna this year, and do the temperature/humidity control loop myself, and when my company can open an office again, I want to do our own IAQ monitoring and UVC sanitization for flu season and other similar things.

Love the dive into building science. As far as fresh air on a hot day, you're gonna want to use an Energy Recovery Ventilator (ERV). Look up a diagram, it's pretty slick how the exhausting air transfers some of it's energy to the incoming fresh air. So it's not full 100 degree air coming in fighting your AC units. ERV's are pretty standard in residential green housing because of how air tight they are making the houses now. There is also a heating one (HRV) for northern climates that are heating dominated. +1 for home assistant. Looking forward to your videos on it.
