Android sensors to Smart Home

Android sensors to smarthome architecture

Our Android phone is by default equipped with multiple sensors, e.g., accelerator sensors, magnetic field, photo light detector, noise level sensor, etc. I have an unused LG G4 which I turned into a sensor device. To convert the sensor readings into MQTT message, Sensor Node Pro is used.

Telegraf is embedded to the MQTT server to transfer the messages to InfluxDB. I used Grafana to visualize the readings.
