Need Help Choosing the Right Pine64 Board for My Project

[tllim]

Hey everyone,

Im looking for some advice on which Pine64 board would be best for my latest project. I am planning to build a small home automation system that integrates with sensors (temperature, humidity, motion, etc.) and controls some basic devices around the house (lights, fans, etc.).

I've been looking at the different Pine64 boards available, but I am not entirely sure which one would be the best fit for this project. I need something that’s fairly easy to set up, has good GPIO options, and can handle running multiple sensors and devices at the same time without any performance issues.

And for the same I have been through these articles/resources https://forum.pine64.org/showthread.php?tid=18116 Generative AI Tutorial that are quite informative. But I’d love to hear more from the community member.

Also, I’d appreciate any tips on getting started with the software side. I am thinking about using Home Assistant, but I’m open to suggestions if there’s a better option.

Thanks in advance for any recommendations or experiences you can share.

Best Regards

My takes is the Quartz64 runs home assistance.
