Weather Monitoring Architecture for Smart Home Using Alexa, Raspberry Pi, and DarkSky API

In recent years, the development of domotics has been increasing thanks to the use of the Raspberry Pi Internet of Things (IoT) capabilities. This allows to automate tasks at home or monitor specific parameters. This article proposes an improvement to the interaction between the smart home system and the end user using an intelligent voice assistant instead of mobile applications or a local web platform. Besides, other sources of information for weather forecasts are also explored, such as the application programming interfaces (APIs) that provide this service.
