History and Objectives

Midon Design was formed in 1999 to help out other Home Automation and Electronic hobbyists. We had been involved with Home Automation and electronic design for over 20 years in a private capacity. With the explosion of Home Automation users occurring in recent years, it has become obvious that there are many people with product needs and very few companies providing the small quantities of products that the users want. This will change over time, however, for now, we at Midon Design wish to help others that are not able to "roll their own" projects. We had decided to publish some projects that have been designed by us over the last 20 years in an effort to help out. Since then, we've added new projects and got rid of some that were no longer of interest. All schematics, object code and component source information will always be published on these web pages for any projects that are made available. PCB's are available for anyone not comfortable in wiring their own projects.

We hope that these projects are useful to you and would appreciate any suggestions you may have regarding modifying these projects, or developing new projects.
