Home Automation Crew

This project follows the journey of wiring together off-the-shelf gadgets, home-grown scripts, and a handful of small robots to act as a cohesive household team. Expect architecture notes, integration patterns, and sprint-sized experiments as the crew learns to schedule chores, share sensor data, and recover from mistakes without human babysitting.

Early milestones focus on:

• Designing a central “task board” that can negotiate jobs between robots and static automations.
• Building reliable fallbacks so one robot can cover for another when something goes wrong.
• Simplifying human inputs—short commands, NFC triggers, and voice prompts that get translated into repeatable routines.

Current toolkit:

• Home Assistant as orchestrator, MQTT as the common bus.
• A mix aus Saugroboter, Steckdosen, kleinen ESP32-Sensoren.
• Python-Skripte für Ad-hoc-Automationen, die später gehärtet werden.

Ziel: Eine Mannschaft, die kleine Haushaltsaufgaben zuverlässig selbst koordiniert und bei Fehlern automatisch eskaliert.
