Some time ago, I bought a Loxone Miniserver to automate our house. I might be a bit old-fashioned, but I prefer to connect everything wired. This was also taken into account during the construction of our house. We still have several Fibaro wall plugs and sensors connected to a Fibaro Home Center (lite), but it would be a shame to say goodbye to them immediately.

Loxone can already do an incredible amount. For things that Loxone can’t do or know, you can use LoxBerry.

LoxBerry is an open source project that expands the Loxone Miniserver. Examples include a free weather service with Wunderground data, voice recognition, switching WiFi sockets, owning a mail server, Google/CalDav support, and so on. LoxBerry was originally developed for Raspberry Pi (hence the name), but now also works on several other platforms. LoxBerry was originally German but has been mostly translated into English.
