Home Heartbeat
Recently I found an article about Home Heartbeat system. The Home Heartbeat system is a mostly monitoring/secure system. The system includes a base station, variety of sensors and Home Key device which is a control console of the system. The base station listens to those sensors and alerts you when there’s something you should be aware of via WiFi (transmission zone is about 30 meters), email or SMS. There is a possibility to plug Range Extender which can expands the transmission zone of the Home Heartbeat system.
As I already said the Home Heartbeat system can be used only for monitoring your home. It doesn’t include any home automation modules. But the price (it shouldn’t be too hight), easy installation procedure and ability to check a status of home devices are good point to start build your smart home from the Home Heartbeat.
