The solution consists of 6 components:
1. The Raspberry PI Board and Rasperian OS
2. The RaZberry Daughter Card that connects to the GPIOs of Raspberry and carry the Sigma Designs Z-Wave transceiver.
3. The Z-Wave low level firmware that runs on the Transceiver.
4. Z-Way – the first certified Z-Wave communication stack, handles all Z-Wave network communication, Java script automation engine, built in web server.
5. The web based Z-Way Demo User Interface using the Z-Way JSON API and demonstrating all functions of Z-Way.
