You’ve used Linux smart home technology to regulate your home’s lights, sprinkler system, and video, and now you’re looking for more of a challenge.

| Project | What You Need |
|---|---|
| Set up a weather station | Oww weather station software, a weather station unit, a weather vane, anemometer cups, a test cable, serial port adapter, and a straight-through cable |
| Automate thermostat controls | TXB16, TW523, CM11A, and either MisterHouse or Heyu software |
