Wire a house that reacts on its own

This is ACEBOTT's smart home kit: a wooden house with a fence, a sliding front door and a window, built on an ESP32 WiFi board. You mount each sensor and module on the house, wire it to the board and program what it does.

By the end, the house reads its own light, rain, motion, temperature and humidity, opens the door for the right keychain, and reports to your phone.

A story to build it by

ACEBOTT's tutorial tells the build as a story. Dr. Lumi opens a wooden box and finds the drawings for Lumi's Smart Home, and you help him rebuild it, then go on the adventure.

It covers the computer side too, from adding the ESP32 board to the code editor to picking the right port.

What you build

• An RFID front door — Tap the keychain tag on the reader and a servo slides the door open.
• A window that closes in the rain — The raindrop sensor on the roof tells a servo to shut the window.
• A live readout — The LCD shows the temperature, the humidity and the house's IP address.
• A night light — A photoresistor senses the dark and switches on the blue LED.
• Phone control — ACEBOTT's app shows light level, motion, rain, temperature and humidity, and sets the color of the RGB light.
• Voice commands — Say "Hi Lumi", then a command such as turning the light or the color light on or off.
• The Time Mirror — An RGB LED strip lights up the round mirror on the side of the house.

In the box

Every module mounts on the house with screws.

• ACEBOTT ESP32-WROOM-32 board — WiFi and Bluetooth, a USB-C port, and pin headers for the modules.
• Sensor and light modules — Raindrop sensor, photoresistor, DHT11 temperature and humidity sensor, PIR motion sensor, push button, blue LED, laser module, voice recognition module, and an RFID reader with a keychain tag.
• Screen, lights and motion — An LCD 1602 screen, an RGB LED strip and SG90 servos for the door and the window.
• The house — Wooden house, fence and Lumi figure, with a 6 x AA battery holder in the base.

Questions

Do I need experience?

No experience is assumed. ACEBOTT wrote the tutorial for beginners, and it covers the computer setup as well as the build: adding the ESP32 board to the code editor, choosing the right port, then the modules.

What else do I need?

A computer with a USB port to program the board, a phone for the app, and six AA batteries to run the house away from the computer.

Does it need WiFi?

For phone control, yes. The board uses 2.4 GHz WiFi and shows the house's IP address on the LCD.

Is this a CraftingTable course kit?

No. It's ACEBOTT's kit, and the Dr. Lumi story lives in ACEBOTT's own tutorial and app. It doesn't include one of our filmed courses.
