BOB Smart Home
Offline Survival System
An enterprise-grade, edge-native microgrid governor and smart home control system engineered to operate 100% autonomously during grid blackouts, ISP backhaul failures, and extreme weather events.
Live System Dashboard & Interactive Demo
Below is the live BOB Smart Home Command Center running at localhost:8888 — zero cloud, zero internet, 100% local edge intelligence.
System Architecture & Key Innovations
Engineered for individual resilience and enterprise-scale estate/microgrid deployment.
Watson-Class Local AI
Features 4 offline Python ML models: StormPredictor (RandomForest barometric drop detection), DeviceAnomalyDetector (IsolationForest power spikes), OccupancyLearner, and DeviceHealthMonitor.
Graphite & Grafana Stack
Complete offline time-series metric collection pipeline utilizing Carbon, StatsD, and Grafana 9.x dashboards for local device response times, UPS battery tracking, and room thermal dynamics.
Red Hat Certified Operator
Includes bob-edge-operator (v1.0.0) verified for the Red Hat Ecosystem Catalog and OpenShift 4.12–4.17 environments under restricted-v2 SecurityContextConstraints (SCC).
Feeder Inrush Governor
Prevents post-storm cold-load pickup transformer failures by stagerring re-energization across 50 homes, reducing peak transformer loading from 1,850 kW down to 406.1 kW (42.7% capacity).
Hackathon Command Center
Zero-dependency dark-mode control dashboard (localhost:8888) with direct lock controls, climate sliders, camera feeds, and automated Storm Mode trigger buttons.
K3s Enterprise Scaling
Scales from single Raspberry Pi to multi-node K3s clusters with EMQX MQTT cluster handling 100,000+ msgs/sec and Nginx TCP stream load balancing.
