Cool stuff and inspiring. Have a website or GitHub about your home automation projects? I checked out your blog, and the raspberry pi microwave was pretty sweet.
I'd be curious to see what a billionaire could do in this niche. Bezos, Branson, and Musk are doing amazing things in the space race. I'm curious what their teams could come up with for this.
Yeah I see what you’re saying, but there will always be the tech equivalent of the back room whisper - a private and authentic conversation. The platform may change, but it will exist because there’s always a need for it. Now, Signal fills that need. In the future… tor on open source hardware? Something else?
The Swarm Tile looks easily integratable into PCB designs. And, it's very low power. Although, I wonder why they need about 3 Watts power consumption when transmitting. At their low transmit frequencies (148-150 MHz), I would think they could lower that number to less than 1 Watt since the wavelengths are so long. But hey, if you deploy your sensor in a sunny location with solar panels, then why not?
