GetWired – RS485 & MySensors home automation modules

Post by feanoranglin »

As an experienced Domoticz user, I thought I should let the community know about a project I’m working on with a friend. It is about hardware for wired home automation, based on reliable, industrial RS485 communication standard and popular, open source MySensors protocol.

We designed it to be the most accessible option for wired home automation with our decentralized architecture (requires only one additional wire across a traditional electrical infrastructure) easy-to-configure software (https://github.com/feanor-anglin/GetWired-Project) and clear instructions. GetWired is also plug&play compatible with most open source home automation controllers, including Domoticz.

Why wired? The answer is simple. Wireless devices are easier to install and accessible for almost everyone, but wired communication is more stable, more immune, faster and safer. Therefore it is more adequate to use in new and renovated buildings.

Lately we managed to launch a crowdfunding campaign to raise some funds to manufacture GetWired hardware. Anyone can support us by buying our designs. There is still more than a week left to do it:

Hope you will find our project interesting. In case of any questions, please feel free to ask me here or by email.

Regards,
Jakub
