I have esp32’s in every room for tracking down The Who in home automation via home assistant and Bermuda. I soldered some headers for the first time and now I’m making custom pcb boards. I added a fog machine for my halloweeen decorations and I’m just having fun. I could see how a much powerful esp32 could eliminate the dozen have and allow to switch between the outlet and battery.

"Bermuda aims to let you track any bluetooth device, and have Home Assistant tell you where in your house that device is."

I'm sorry to be asking this, but what is that supposed to mean?

    Smart homes are dumb unless you are presence aware. Looking at your phone to do a thing is just moving a light switch to your hand.

    The Who is — does the automation make sense for one or many people. If two people are in a room what happens? If one person leaves what happens?

    Esp32’s are pivotal in actually making a smart home predict what you want making the home more of a friend, “get on up there Peter Townsend.”
