piVCCU
Run the original Homematic CCU3 firmware in an LXC container on ARM single-board computers for home automation.
What is piVCCU?
piVCCU is a project that virtualizes the original Homematic CCU3 firmware inside an LXC container to run on ARM-based single-board computers. It solves the problem of needing dedicated hardware for the Homematic home automation central unit by allowing it to operate alongside other software on devices like Raspberry Pi. This provides a cost-effective and flexible alternative to proprietary CCU hardware.
Home automation enthusiasts and professionals using Homematic systems who want to run the CCU3 on affordable, general-purpose single-board computers instead of dedicated hardware.
Developers choose piVCCU because it offers full compatibility with the original Homematic ecosystem using the official firmware, supports a wide range of ARM hardware, and enables easy migration from existing CCU setups without losing functionality.
