Command center · ktron.dev

Your PC, your lab,
and every camera.

Pulse is the board where live PC stats, Proxmox, TrueNAS, the network, the smart home, and the camera feeds sit in one place.

Sample board. CPU, memory, temperature, and pool figures are the command center’s demo readings.


The desk machine, refreshed as it runs.

Pulse polls the Windows PC and keeps the sensors on the board: load, clocks, temperatures, memory, disks, and fans. The same numbers are there when you open it from the phone.

Uptime sits in the header. A hot package or a stuck fan is visible next to the lab, not in another app.


TrueNAS pools and the Proxmox host.

Storage and the virtual machines share the board with the PC. Pool health, a scrub, and which guests are up are part of the same glance. The guest names here are a sample of that layout.

The map, and control from it.

Pulse draws the path from the WAN through the switch to the PC, the lab, the cameras, and the home devices. From that map you reach a machine, a pool, a guest, or a device without hunting through separate consoles.

Feeds and devices, beside the lab.

Blink and Ring feeds stay on the board with the pools and the CPU. Lights, locks, sensors, and the alarm are the rest of that screen, through Home Assistant.
