The project begun with the weather forecast service, that consisted in finding a proper free online weather provider and integrating it with the Cortexa software.
We also developed the mode system, which is one of the featured functionalities of the new version. This system allows one to set up different modes for the house. Each mode has a group of dispositions that sets default temperatures, lighting, and irrigation when the mode is activated.
