I'm currently working on an open-source home automation project. It's called Halbert (combination of "HAL[-9000]" and a typical butler's name "Albert".
It's usable in a lot of different ways.
You can use the built-in voice control (hotword detection => SpeechToTex => Language Intent Parser) to use it e.g. "turn off the lights in the living room".
You can also use the web interface, which is designed to work really well on tablets and phones for easy usage.
The system is written in a modular way, so it's easily configurable and extendable.

I'd love to have some help on the built-in components like Weather Components or Special Control Units.
