|
|
|
Home Assistant can expand it's Bluetooth reach by communicating through
|
|
the Bluetooth proxy component in ESPHome. Place your ESPHome devices close to the
|
|
Bluetooth devices that you want to interact with for the best
|
|
experience.
|
|
|
|
If you're looking to create a device that is just a Bluetooth Proxy, see our `Bluetooth Proxy installer <https://esphome.github.io/bluetooth-proxies/>`__ website.
|
|
|
|
The Bluetooth proxy depends on :doc:`esp32_ble_tracker` so make sure to add that to your configuration.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
Bluetooth proxy requires Home Assistant 2022.9 or later.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
The Bluetooth proxy of ESPHome currently only provides Home Assistant with passive sensor
|
|
data that is advertised by certain devices. Not all devices are supported and ESPHome does not decode or keep a list.
|
|
To find out if your device is supported, please search for it in the `Home Assistant Integrations <https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/>`__ list.
|
|
|
|
The Individual device integrations in Home Assistant (such as BTHome) will receive the data from the Bluetooth Integration in Home Assistant
|
|
which automatically aggregates all ESPHome bluetooth proxies with any USB Bluetooth Adapters you might have.
|
|
|
|
Configuration:
|
|
--------------
