I am currently building a house. I want to make it a bit "smart".
I would like to have RGB LED strips in every room of the house (bedroom, living room, children's rooms) with the possibility to set the intensity of the whole strip and the colour of each LED.
I would also like to install a motion sensor on the ground-floor stairs every other staircase, so that I can control the LEDs on the stairs taking into account the signals from the motion sensor.
I would also like to have motion sensors in each room to detect someone's presence.
At the door of each room, I would like to have programmable switches; for example, a switch the size of a normal light switch contains 4 programmable keys, which can be used to control a large number of functions, e.g:
- single pressing of key 1: switches on the LED strip at 40%.
- double pressing of key 1: switches the LED bar to 75%.
- single pressing of the key 2: changes the colour of the strip, e.g. to a warmer one
- double pressing of the key 2: return the LED bar to white
- single pressing of the button 3: covers the blinds with clearance
- double pressing of the button 3: blind completely
- triple pressing of the button 3: unblind the blinds
- ...
In the bathrooms, I would like the light to illuminate immediately when the door is opened from the outside - so reed switches in the door would probably be useful.
However, I'm not familiar with electronics, so I'd like to ask experienced people what sensors, LED strips, switches and reed switches they recommend. For these LEDs, what controller would need to be used?
For the control I would like to use free solutions such as Home-Assistant.
I would very much appreciate your help in choosing which components to use.
