sheenIoT Β· Home Automation

Make Any Home aΒ Smart Home

Smart relays controlled over ESP-NOW, bridged to the cloud by a sheenbot mainboard and WiFi β€” switch lights, plugs, gates and the geyser from one sheenIoT dashboard, anywhere.

Why It Matters Here

A Smart Home Built for South Africa

Home automation here isn't about gadgets β€” it's about coping with load-shedding, securing the property and cutting the bill, even in homes that were never wired for it.

πŸ”Œ

Load-Shedding

Know what’s on, shed non-essential loads automatically, and bring geysers and pumps back in a controlled sequence when power returns.

πŸ›‘οΈ

Security

Control gates, garage doors and lights remotely, and trigger β€œaway” scenes that make the home look lived-in.

πŸ’‘

Energy Cost

The geyser and pool pump are the biggest loads in the house β€” schedule and meter them to slash the monthly bill.

🏚️

No Smart Wiring

Older homes have no smart-home infrastructure. Drop-in relays retrofit existing circuits without rewiring the house.

πŸ“Ά

WiFi Dead Zones

WiFi rarely reaches the gate, garage or outbuildings. ESP-NOW links those nodes router-free, then one hub carries them to the cloud.

πŸ“±

One Place to Run It

Lights, plugs, geyser, gate and cameras scattered across apps. sheenIoT puts the whole house on a single dashboard.

Three Parts, One Smart Home

Smart relays do the switching, ESP-NOW links them without a router, and a sheenbot mainboard bridges the lot to WiFi and the sheenIoT dashboard.

πŸ”˜

Smart Relays

Retrofit relay nodes switch lights, plugs, the geyser, gates and pumps on existing circuits β€” no rewiring.

πŸ“‘

ESP-NOW Mesh

Nodes talk directly to each other over ESP-NOW β€” router-free, low-latency and low-power, reaching the gate and garage.

🧠

sheenbot Hub + sheenIoT

A sheenbot mainboard bridges the ESP-NOW mesh to WiFi and the cloud, so one dashboard runs and automates the whole house.

The Architecture

From a Light Switch to the Cloud

Relay nodes report and take commands over the ESP-NOW mesh; the sheenbot hub is the single point that bridges that mesh to WiFi and sheenIoT.

One Dashboard, Total Remote Control

Everything lives in the sheenIoT dashboard β€” open it on a phone or a browser and you have full remote control of your home, from your desk or the other side of the country. (Go on β€” tap the switches.)

  • Switch lights, plugs, the geyser, gates and pumps remotely β€” anytime, anywhere.
  • See live power draw and which loads are on, room by room.
  • Build scenes and schedules (away, night, load-shedding) and deploy them over the air.
  • Get instant alerts on the gate, a tripped circuit or power returning.
  • Let AI learn your routine and shift big loads to the cheapest, safest time.
Around the House

What You Can Automate

πŸ’‘

Lighting & Plugs

Switch and schedule lights and appliances; flip everything off with one β€˜leaving home’ tap.

♨️

Geyser & Pool Pump

Time the home’s biggest loads, and pause them automatically during peak or load-shedding.

πŸšͺ

Gates & Garage

Open the driveway gate or garage from your phone, with an alert each time it moves.

πŸ“·

Security Scenes

Trigger lights and cameras on motion, and run β€˜away’ scenes that look lived-in.

πŸ”‹

Load-Shedding Logic

Shed non-essential circuits before the lights go out and restore them in a safe order.

🌑️

Climate & Sensors

Add temperature, motion, door and water-leak sensors to trigger any relay automatically.
