Boats and living aboard

Make your home on board easy to place.

Living aboard gives a few small spaces many jobs. A clear view should put the most useful living-space functions first.

Use daily tasks as the measure

Choose functions you need regularly. A saloon light and a suitable temperature value may be enough to start. Batteries, tanks and energy supply matter too, but are outside the VioMio scope established here.

Assess connectivity in advance

Network conditions at the berth and while travelling can differ. The connection needed by a specific installation needs assessment. Home Assistant’s general ability to run locally does not guarantee that your complete VioMio setup will operate without internet.

A practical example

Illustrative example at the berth: Read the cabin temperature and use a supported lamp. Keep energy and tank information on their existing dedicated displays.

What your setup needs to provide

VioMio adds a 3D view to Home Assistant. Verified feature groups are light controls, supported cover functions, and display of suitable door/window contacts and room temperatures. Dimming, colour temperature and cover functions depend on the device and integration. Temperatures are read-only. Relevant entities need suitable room and floor assignments. We assess your specific scope before preparing a quote. Continuous operation, offline capability and monitoring an unattended boat have not been verified.

Your route to a quote

Later, describe the rooms you use regularly, intended screen and known connection conditions. Credentials do not belong in the enquiry. For the first enquiry, we need your email address, smart-home system and approximate building or space size. Plans, photos and device information can follow later. Send only necessary materials and remove private information and credentials. We clarify open questions by email and prepare a quote with scope and costs. Implementation is agreed afterwards.
