About calaos.fr
Calaos is a free software home automation system (GPLv3) for controlling and monitoring a home. It includes the Calaos Server core application, the Calaos Home touchscreen interface, the Calaos Webapp, the Calaos Installer configuration tool, iOS and Android apps, and Calaos OS, a Linux distribution with the software preinstalled. Supported hardware includes Wago PLCs, Raspberry Pi, Zodianet ZiBASE, Cubieboard, Squeezebox and CCTV systems. Automation can be scheduled by time, ambience or mood, and multi-room music playback is supported.
The users are home automation enthusiasts and people who install smart home systems themselves. The project is funded by voluntary donations, which are used to maintain servers and subscriptions for Calaos services, buy hardware for development and promote the project. Community members contribute code, documentation, translations and design, and support is provided through a wiki, a forum and a Discord server.
Calaos was first developed by a French company of the same name. After that company closed in 2013, its code base was released as open source under the GPL, and a community has continued development since then.
Product: Calaos Server home automation core with touchscreen, web, iOS and Android interfaces, a configuration installer and the Calaos OS Linux distribution.
