Summary

In this final chapter, we used everything we learned in the book to build a complete home automation system based on the Raspberry Pi. We used several of those boards and connected each one of it to a different type of components and then interfaced all those boards with a common interface running on your computer or on another Pi.

We also learned how to create more complex behaviors and use this central server to make the Raspberry Pi modules communicate with each other. Finally, we also saw how to access your home automation system from anywhere in the world.

You now have all the tools to transform your home into a smart home using the Raspberry Pi Zero board. I hope that this book allowed you to understand how to use this small, cheap but incredibly powerful board to automate your home. I now invite you to experiment with all the projects we saw in the book and I can't wait to see what you are going to do with it in your own home!
