Latest #robot in sea trials. An old 12v trolling motor provides propulsion. A #RaspberryPi pico is always-on and runs the basics, sensors, h-bridges and such.

An RPi4 will be the main autonomy hub to enable detailed mapping and surveys and such. But for now I can just push #mqtt buttons in #HomeAssistant and move it around.

I built it almost totally out of scrap and epoxy. What a delightful waste of time! 😜

P. S. Note the #lego crew on the bridge.

Successfully moved all my #MQTT connections onto the mosquitto server in my #homeassistant. Connections from solar panels via VPN connection on two AVM fritzbox routers, application my smartphone and a sensor on my electrical meter all publish in my local network now.
#homemade #WallBox using #dombusevse module with #homeassistant : it's easy by using #dombusgateway, a software that converts DomBus messages to #MQTT #Autodiscovery.
Connect the EVSE module to your domotic controller, install #dombusgateway software, and all entities will be available in you HA dashboard, permitting to charge the #electricvehicle by using only Solar energy, or adding energy from the Grid.

Wir haben einen #Roborock S5 Max, den ich vor dem ersten Einschalten zuerst gerootet und dann mit #valetudo versehen habe. Läuft seit sehr vielen Jahren ohne Verschleiß, ohne Defekt, ohne Probleme. Valetudo bietet #mqtt , das den Robi wiederum mit #homeassistant kommunizieren lässt. Dadurch kann ich tolle Sachen programmieren. Wenn es an der Haustüre klingelt macht er z.B. Pause. Wenn er Probleme hat, bekomme Ich eine Nachricht usw usf.

I'm kinda wondering.
If you use #MQTT over Websockets, how do you secure it?
Do you create a user on the broker for each user of your app? What would be the password, their password on the app? Or do you store MQTT keys in the database somehow?
Are you interested in #MQTT, messaging, #IoT and related topics?
