Hi, I'm Eric Burmeister.

Poolboy Q

Processes pool chemical test reports by parsing PDFs, extracting values, and storing them in a structured format with a vector index. An n8n pipeline connects this data to LibreChat (ai.burm.io), where a RAG workflow makes the results accessible through chat and delivers clear dosage and cleaning recommendations.

AI Lifeguard

When done, we will have a reliable AI-driven pool monitoring system that can trigger alerts/alarms when young children are unattended near our pool. LLM training will include drowning detection, but the focus is preventive, not reactive, measures.

PROGRESS: Developing the pipeline to take the Home Assistant video feed and split into frames for processing by a Vision LLM like LLaVA for image recognition/analysis.

BurmGPT

The vision is to build a private, self-hosted home assistant that replaces both ChatGPT and Google assistant for our queries, schedule management, collaboration, tasks, and home automation needs.

PROGRESS: LibreChat-powered UI and agents are ready, so after some tweaks to web search results the n8n pipelines are next, but this project is on hold until AI Lifeguard is complete.

kWh Dashboard

A simple pipeline that used Python to log into the Evergy account when a new billing notification email was received, extract data from the API and eBill PDFs, and consolidate cost, usage, weather, and solar production metrics for monitoring and analysis. The locally hosted dashboard was powered by Metabase.
