All that terminology at a really low cost, awesome.

I feel like this comment could be turned into a popular blog post.

I can write up the sensor setup I have at home, if you want. It has motion, temperature, humidity, light sensors and IR/RF remotes for controlling devices, and a burglar alarm.
Please do write about it. Personally, I'll be happy to steal as many ideas as I can for my upcoming home installation :).
Great, I'll give it a shot tomorrow. I also have a mini-ecosystem of Python scripts to communicate with the sensors over serial and to read values, etc. I'll post that as well.
Great! :). Will be refreshing /new/ tomorrow.
Hmm, it looks like I open-sourced most of it a while ago (way to go, past me!):

I'll write up the details, but this is a good chunk of it.

I JUST started this exact functionality to communicate with a wireless scale, thanks for sharing!
