  6. What’s one smart home feature you wish manufacturers would STOP making unnecessarily complicated?

    I’m looking at you Apple, still not letting users do simple timeouts easily

  11. Convierte un aire acondicionado antiguo en inteligente con ESP32 y Matter


    Muchos aires acondicionados continúan funcionando perfectamente después de diez o quince años, aunque carecen de conexión WiFi, control desde el móvil o compatibilidad con asistentes de voz.

    Para modernizarlos sin sustituirlos, Tim —conocido como timj-code en GitHub— ha desarrollado BC7215 AC Matter, un interesante proyecto abierto que permite controlar mediante Matter prácticamente cualquier aire acondicionado que utilice un mando por infrarrojos.

    El sistema emplea una placa ESP32-C3 y un módulo BC7215 para transformar las órdenes procedentes del móvil o de un asistente de voz en señales infrarrojas:

    Móvil o asistente → Matter → ESP32 → infrarrojos → aire acondicionado

    Un controlador universal sin modificar el aparato

    Una de sus principales ventajas es que no resulta necesario abrir el aire acondicionado ni modificar su electrónica. El dispositivo se coloca cerca de la unidad y actúa de forma similar a un mando universal conectado.

    Entre sus características destacan:

    • Compatibilidad con aparatos antiguos y modernos controlados por infrarrojos.
    • Integración con Apple Home, Google Home, Alexa y Home Assistant.
    • Control mediante el móvil, automatizaciones o comandos de voz.
    • Funcionamiento sin una aplicación específica del fabricante.
    • Sin registro de usuario ni dependencia de una cuenta externa.
    • Instalación del firmware directamente desde el navegador.
    • Uso de módulos comerciales, sin necesidad de diseñar una PCB.
    • Archivos incluidos para imprimir una carcasa en 3D.

    El controlador también puede recibir las órdenes del mando original. De este modo, cuando se cambia la temperatura o el modo desde el mando físico, el estado puede sincronizarse con la plataforma domótica.

    Componentes necesarios

    El montaje utiliza principalmente:

    • Una placa Seeed Studio XIAO ESP32-C3 o ESP32-C3 Super Mini.
    • Un módulo BC7215.
    • Un pulsador y un LED.
    • Una fuente de alimentación USB.
    • Algunos cables de conexión.
    • Una carcasa impresa en 3D, opcional.

    El firmware puede instalarse desde un navegador compatible, por lo que no es imprescindible utilizar Arduino IDE ni configurar un entorno de programación.

    Compatibilidad con Matter

    Una vez montado y emparejado con el mando del aire acondicionado, el dispositivo puede añadirse escaneando su código QR Matter.

    Con un iPhone se integra directamente en Apple Home y puede controlarse mediante Siri. Para utilizarlo con Google Home normalmente se necesita un Google Nest compatible con Matter. Alexa requiere un dispositivo Echo compatible y Home Assistant necesita el complemento Matter.

    Incluso puede compartirse entre varias plataformas, permitiendo controlar el mismo aire acondicionado desde diferentes ecosistemas domóticos.

    Algunas limitaciones

    El proyecto se centra principalmente en las funciones básicas:

    • Encendido y apagado.
    • Modo frío o calor.
    • Selección de temperatura.
    • Regulación básica del ventilador.

    Funciones específicas como el modo sueño, la deshumidificación, la oscilación de las lamas o algunos temporizadores podrían no estar disponibles. También pueden existir aparatos con protocolos infrarrojos poco habituales que necesiten ajustes adicionales.

    Además, al tratarse de un dispositivo DIY que utiliza credenciales de desarrollo, durante la instalación puede aparecer una advertencia indicando que no es un producto Matter certificado oficialmente.

    Un proyecto abierto creado por Tim

    BC7215 AC Matter es un proyecto desarrollado y compartido por Tim —timj-code—, quien ha publicado gratuitamente el código, las instrucciones de montaje, el instalador web y los archivos de la carcasa.

    El proyecto se distribuye con licencia MIT, por lo que puede estudiarse, modificarse e incluso utilizarse como base para otros desarrollos.

    Puedes encontrar toda la información en su repositorio:

    https://github.com/timj-code/bc7215_ac_matter

    Conclusión

    Este proyecto demuestra que no hace falta sustituir un aire acondicionado que todavía funciona para integrarlo en un hogar inteligente.

    Con una placa ESP32-C3, un módulo infrarrojo y unas pocas conexiones, es posible controlar un equipo antiguo desde Apple Home, Google Home, Alexa o Home Assistant, sin abrirlo, sin instalar la aplicación de su fabricante y sin crear una nueva cuenta.

    Una excelente iniciativa de Tim que aprovecha las posibilidades de ESP32 y Matter para prolongar la vida útil de aparatos perfectamente funcionales.

  12. Hmm, I wonder if if fixes the issues I’m having for quite a while with my Arduino Nano Matter and Apple Home driven by HomePod mini as a hub… 🤔

    The bug is this: every day after a while HomePod mini stops communicating with Nano Matter and all Nano Matter automations are vanishing from Apple He app.

    I have to manually restore those each time from Home+ 6 iOS app becuse I can see them there still somehow.

  23. Started cleaning up and locking down my iPad Air when I discovered I had somehow required Touch ID to open the Shortcuts app, which is not an option. Retracing my steps, I found it’s because I required it for the Home app, which makes sense because home automations are available in Shortcuts. Does the same on my iPad Pro with Face ID, both on iPadOS 26.5.2. Does not work on my iPhone 13 mini, also 26.5.2.
