d-diot hub v.3.0
The hub 3.0 is a lot different respect to the previous ones, because now it is a wifi multi-gateway (IR, 433 Mhz, Mysensors) based on ESP8266 and ESP32 modules, independent from the Raspberry Pi.
Check the components page of Home Assistant to see how big is the list of supported devices and paltforms.
All the data of your home are processed and stored locally and not in the. Why query a remote server, probably on the other corner of the world, just to turn on a light which is few meters away from you?
Every device in the project has a low power consumption, so you can run it 24/7 with a negligible impact on your energy bill.
With the infrared receiver and transmitter you can control any devices that has a dummy infrared remote (TV, hi-fi, AV receiver, etc..).
With the 433 Mhz transmitter and receiver you can control a lot of devices on the market (like smart plugs, smoke detectors, motion sensors, etc...) that uses this technology.
With MySensors you can easily build any custom sensor or actuator that you want with just an Arduino and a radio module (RFM69 and NRF24). The power consumption is very low, so they are the primary choice for battery powered devices.
Of course Wifi and Bluetooth are present!
Every device can be built with few Euros
You can not find exactly what you need on the market? Maybe in the d-diot project you can find an easy answer to your needs.

In few words Home Assistant is the core of your home automation. It is a great open source projects that allows you to control an impressive number of smart devices through an easy and nice web interface.
"We're here to help people who'd like to create original and affordable sensors and actuators based on components like, Arduino, ESP8266, Raspberry Pi, NRF24L01+ and RFM69. Does it sound complicated? Don’t worry, we’ll explain everything."
ESPHome is a system to control your ESP8266/ESP32 by simple yet powerful configuration files and control them remotely through Home Automation systems like Home Assistant.

With this MySensors node you can turn on/off 3 USB type A ports in a traditional or smart way
With this expansion board you can turn on/off 3 USB type A ports; the power state of each port can be controlled with the dedicated physical push button or in a “smart” way through the Home Assistant WebUI
