Under the barbarian name of XMPPHWFS stands the following idea:

hardware IOs made available on a fuse filesystem through xml messaging protocol

and imagine doing stuff like

garage_temp = myHome/garage/temperature
garage_heat = myHome/heating/pump1

if (( $garage_temp < 2 ))
then
 echo 1 > $garage_heat
fi

the above example is crappy, because it would be better done with the event-driven interface that must be included. maybe fill an sql table and bots that read it.

XMPPHWFS is meant to replace locmon, which in my opinion was a good idea but is too buggy and impractical. from a recent copy of 20 minutes, it seems the industry is also heading towards something alike, only for home robots and social networking. tell me WTF your vacuum cleaner why should tell all your facebook friends there's a plant in its way.

it was suggested to use IRC for communication, but device description is be greatly improved through use of XML and XMPP is just that.

Hardware

to make XMPPHWFS as useful as possible, some hardware should be designed and the necessary firmware written

Software extensions

  • communicate with Asterisk to send voice commands
  • have some fun with XMMS2 / MPD
