5 Raspberry Pi projects to help with your chaotic home life
Mar 14, 2025
What's better than a cool Raspberry Pi project? A Raspberry Pi project that helps you navigate your chaotic daily life better. As much as these SBC projects can be for fun or for doing something cool, sometimes they (gosh forbid) actually aid us with our tasks. So, here are some projects you can try if things around the home are getting a little too hectic for your liking.
5 Use an SMS notification to warn you when the laundry is done
Because life is too hectic to listen for a single chime
The best part about listening to music with noise-cancelling headphones while you chill at home is that it blocks out the outside world. The worst part is that it also blocks out the parts you want to listen out for, like the laundry chime. I know I've missed a few end of laundry cycles because I was too deep in a TV show or game to hear it.
Fortunately, this handy little Raspberry Pi project has your back. It listens out for a precise chime that a laundry machine makes and beams over an SMS message to the user to tell them that their clothes are now fresh and dry.
