Score: 4.7/10 (Innovation: 6, Technical: 4, Documentation: 3, Utility: 4)

This project uses a Tapo camera and AI to monitor a 'dumb' boiler's error codes and zone controller lights, sending text alerts when issues arise. It's interesting for creatively retrofitting smart monitoring onto legacy appliances without direct internet exposure, though the implementation appears niche and minimally documented.

Target audience: homeowners, property managers, IoT enthusiasts
