This project includes both hardware- and software design for a new innovative Home Thermostat. It is based on NXP ARM-M series microcontroller and offers a large touch screen. All software and interfaces are open allowing other users to add custom hardware, such as sensors and actuators for home automation. Also, a network connection is provided (WIFI optional) to allow mobile apps to communicate with the home thermostat to set and read values and/or control the home automation system.

Simple 5 region thermostat with PIC16F690 using NTC's as a sensors driving 5+1 relays. Thermostat do not use PID control but a simple on/off with hysteresis (like ordinary mechanical thermostat would - note that function in source that decides to turn heater on/off is called pid() but that's not how decision is made). Note that it's designed to measure 5 regions and control 5 groups of heaters but *all* of them are trying to reach *same* temperature. If a region goes too much off the set...
