Ciao, we are very curious to know what our community is making. If you want to help us understand better your application, tailor the library and the protocol to your requirements please share here what you made!

With this we also want to beta-test the new discussions section

Hey Gio,

in the first place, I do appreciate your work very much, thank you!

I started a few years ago with programming in Arduino, my devices are mostly Arduino Uno respectively Arduino Pro (without USB). I also started with some ATtiny 85, but their small memory is a limitation - I guess because of my quite stupid Arduino code. In the beginning I was not very optimistic about the stability of the work I could do with micro controllers, so I started with a door bell connection to my automation software. The specific upgrade to a normal bell: with a secret knock code I'm able to open my door with a servo build into the door. Since two years I'm without the need of a key to enter my house. I've never experienced an issue with this. Nice.

One year ago a had an issue with the steering of my heating, I decided to build my own one - connected via PJON and MQTT to HomeAssistant. The data helps to save a few bucks because I can tune the temperatures in a better way. And, who else is able to say: "Alexa, turn the hot water on"?

My next projects will be some relays actors, PWM dimmers, heat meter and humidity sensors. Maybe some actors for venting. Oh, I forgot the automatic watering system for plants. Ups, too late ;-). Why not some sensors for my garden pump, so I can monitor the ground water level? When I made the electric installation of my house I put everywhere telephone cables in the walls, so I'm only limited by the time I want to spent in my hobby room.

What could be of use are some more controllers to work with SWBB. I hesitate to mix 3 and 5 Volt devices in one network, want to have more memory... The ATtiny 2 series and the cheap CH32V003 are interesting. Small, 5 Volt capable, enough of memory and cheap. Am I right, when I think that I have to put in the right sections in Timing.h and PJON_IO.h? I'm very interested in building devices with a small footprint.

OK, back to show and tell. If anyone is interested in my sketches, just write a message to [email protected].

best regards und liebe Grüße,

Markus

I came across PJON a couple of years ago and did some exploring then. I have come back to it now. My application is in the electronics of model railways. I am working on using the SoftwareBitBang model to pass data between Arduinos which are doing some other tasks as well. I would be interested if the support was extended to the Raspberry Pi Picos. Thanks for your work. John Fletcher
