Crowdfunding for eHouse BAS/BMS - Smart Home | Home/Building Automation | Building Management System


We enable direct Crowdfunding opportunity for eHouse DIY BAS/BMS system, in order to finance FREE of cost open-source software development (in various programming languages).
This gives opportunity to eHouse Users of self development (for FREE) of the system software, algorithms, use-cases.
User can use our open-source templates, software, libraries, APIs, at minimal code and knowledge of programming for its own purposes etc.
Open-source Code covers Software overlays for eHouse system: native and core applications/software/firmware.
Funder will be rewarded by receiving certain amount of FREE of charge (DIY controllers and binary software). This amount depends on funded sum of money.
Funder also will have opportunity to buy certain amount of DIY controllers at lowest prices (for highest volume level for distributors).
This means, that Funder supports open-source code/software/applications development at similar price, as he/she would have to pay for buying system at standard (end-user) prices from the company.

Additionally, eHouse DIY Open-Source Software Funder will have direct impact on further open-source code development strategy/direction (in case of funding new project completely individually {VIP donations} or together with other donators).
