Introducing a Temperature Sensor Controller for SmartThings

I’m excited to share a fantastic tool I’ve come across for SmartThings users! It’s a driver/controller for temperature sensors that allows you to control other SmartThings devices based on temperature readings. This is particularly useful for users with Xiaomi temperature sensors or similar devices.The tool, developed by sgupta999, converts a basic temperature sensor into a thermostat-like device. You can set heating and cooling setpoints, variances, and even use contact sensors to trigger events. This means you can automate actions like turning off space heaters or window AC units based on temperature readings.One of the standout features is the ability to create virtual sensors that pass events to Alexa. This opens up a world of possibilities for integrating your temperature sensors with voice commands. The setup is user-friendly, with clear configuration screens that guide you through the process.I’ve been using this tool for a while now, and it’s been incredibly reliable. It’s a must-have for anyone looking to enhance their home automation setup with temperature-based automation. Check out the GitHub link for more details and to download the driver!If you have any questions or want to share your experiences, feel free to reach out. Happy automating! :slight_smile:
