YaMon - это мини-монитор Умного Дома Яндекс (УДЯ).Идея в том, что спрашивать у Алисы про температуру на улице или уровень CO2 в комнате - быстро надоедает. Гораздо удобнее, когда есть железка с экраном и для оценки ситуации достаточно одного взгляда.Уточню, что речь именно про получение информации с реальных датчиков, подключенных к Яндекс Станции, а не про прогноз погоды.Проблема в том, что Яндекс для своего УДЯ не предлагает никакого экрана мониторинга...

За пару дней 1 051 человек нажал кнопку «Тоже жду» — и мы поняли, что попали в нерв.ГдеЗаправка (gdezapravka.ru) — народная карта наличия топлива на... Read more
