| | | | | Developing firmware for an embedded remote sensor that needs to adhere to a specific protocol has challenges due to the limited resources and the complexity of the implementation. Experience on a previous project (a remote sensor gateway) demonstrated how Test Driven Development could assist when working on complex systems. This write-up describes the approach used... | |

| | | | | In November last year - I started building a DIY security alarm system, using a Raspberry Pi as the controller. My plan was to make a self-sustained system, using proper alarm hardware - like PIR sensors and sirens. Integration with Home Assistant would be an add-on, not a requirement. I wanted the system to be as redundant and fault-tolerant as I could make it. This is a pretty long story, with some twists and turns - let's get into it ?? | |

| | | | | The advantage of Zigbee devices is that they are very low power, and they communicate in a wireless mesh network. The sensors are small and can work off a CR2032 coin cell for at least 2 years, maybe more. Depending on the type of sensor, they cost around US$10 and are readily available from various... | |
