Home Automation, Cameras & Local Monitoring
This project area explores local-first automation and monitoring systems.
The focus is on making automation understandable, serviceable, and useful. Topics include camera feeds, event detection, local dashboards, sensor data, notification concepts, and connecting systems together without making them overly fragile or cloud-dependent.

Camera hardware like this makes the software side more concrete: every dashboard, event rule, and notification flow eventually has to deal with real image quality, network behavior, and maintenance.
Current Interests
- Local camera monitoring
- Event detection concepts
- Sensor-driven automation
- MQTT-style messaging
- Dashboard layouts
- Local notifications
- Practical system health monitoring
- Making automation easier to troubleshoot
Related MQTT Learning
This project connects naturally with MQTT Learning & Packaging Automation Concepts, especially when camera events are published as MQTT messages and consumed by dashboards, scripts, notification systems, or local automation experiments.
Scope
The recurring pattern is local event detection, serviceable dashboards, clear alerting, and monitoring workflows that remain understandable over time.
