Overview

We'll set up the foundation of a Home Automation System with:

• A single Arduino with a temperature sensor,
• Which sends the data wirelessly to a Raspberry Pi,
• Which will fetch the message,
• Publish it to an MQTT channel,
• Where the OpenHAB MQTT binding will pick it up,
• So it can be displayed in a web browser (and used for rules).
