Integration references for Ridfinder detection hardware — written for the people who have to wire it into a real system.
Reference sections
- REST API — endpoints, authentication and payload shapes for pulling detections into your platform
- MQTT output — topics, JSON message schema and a Home Assistant example
- Deployment guide — siting, mounting and validation, from survey to first detection
- Site survey checklist — the twelve checks we run before quoting a multi-node site
- Firmware — update channels, policy and the release log
- Technical FAQ — network ports, offline behaviour, pairing and data retention
Status, stated plainly: the hardware is in pre-production and these documents describe the v0.9 interface draft. Schemas are locked against firmware 1.0 and can change until then — if you are integrating against them, tell us and we will flag breaking changes before they land.
