Google Home, But Better:Smart Home Display with Flutter

Talkat Droidcon London 2023 · 2023-10-26..10-27· [flutter, iot]

A full smart‑home display runs on Raspberry Pi 4B (4GB RAM) with an SCD41 CO2/temperature/humidity sensor attached over I2C, a Waveshare 11" IPS touch display, and Shelly bulbs/plugs controlled via simple HTTP GET calls. Flutter (standard Linux embedder) renders the UI, a Python process exposes sensor readings over D‑Bus, and the Flutter app polls those values every few seconds; the prototype is assembled, the UI is responsive, and the demo works.
