Versie 2025.8.0 van Home Assistant is uitgebracht. Dit opensourceplatform voor domotica is gemaakt in Python 3 en ondersteunt het detecteren van apparaten zoals Philips Hue, Belkin, Mr. Coffee-koffiezetapparaten, WeMo-schakelaars, de slimme schakelaars van IKEA en het MQTT-protocol. Daarnaast kan het waar mogelijk deze apparaten aansturen en automatisering toepassen. Voor meer informatie over Home Assistant verwijzen we naar deze pagina en ons eigen forum. De volledige releasenotes voor deze uitgave zijn hier te vinden. Dit is de aankondiging daaruit:
2025.8: The summer of AIIn most parts of the world, summer mode is in full effect! Many at the Open Home Foundation and many of our contributors are enjoying a well-deserved break from work and open source. I hope that you are maybe enjoying a well-deserved break as well! Summer breaks or not, we are currently very busy with our next product launch! In case you have missed it, this upcoming Wednesday, August 13 (12:00 PM PT, 3:00 PM ET, 21:00 CEST), we will have an extra live stream to announce the next big thing in the Home Assistant Connect series! Be sure to head over to YouTube to hit the reminder button so you don’t miss it! Z-Wave is not dead!
Alright, on to the release! We keep moving during summer and are excited to bring you the August release of Home Assistant! Let’s start with my personal favorite of this release: The improved experience when viewing a group, for example, a group helper with lights. When viewing such a group entity, you can now control the individual members of that group directly in that dialog. Super useful! I’m pretty sure that will be used a lot in our house.
But as the release title suggests, this release brings in an important foundation for new AI opportunities in Home Assistant: AI Tasks. Think of it as a way to delegate tasks to AI and get back the result of that task in a structured way so it can be used. Sounds vague? Dive into the release notes! Enjoy the release!
