Smart Home Outdoor & Yard
Smart home technology doesn't stop at your front door. Your yard, garage, and outdoor spaces can be just as automated as the inside of your home.
This course covers the unique challenges and opportunities of outdoor smart home automation. You'll learn how to set up weather-aware irrigation that skips watering when rain is forecast, install and automate landscape lighting, add smart garage door control with presence-based automation, deploy outdoor cameras and motion sensors, and monitor weather conditions with a personal weather station. We also cover weatherproofing considerations, extended WiFi range for outdoor devices, and seasonal automation schedules.
