New Features

• TensorFlow image_processing component The tensorflow image processing platform allows you to detect and recognize objects in a camera image using TensorFlow. The state of the entity is the number of objects detected, and recognized objects are listed in the summary attribute.  Note: In the show we mentioned this is done via the cloud, however this is performed locally on your device. Thanks hunterjm on Discord for confirming! https://www.home-assistant.io/components/image_processing.tensorflow/

• Z-wave Barrier Class Support This is a big change for users of Z-wave in Home Assistant. If you’ve got a garage door opener (or anything that uses the Z-wave Barrier classes), you can now link these with Home Assistant.In order to acheive this, Home Assistant has forked Open-zwave, and is now running their own fork of Openzwave.
• BT Smart Hub router Device Tracker https://www.home-assistant.io/components/device_tracker/
• Météo-france sensor : current weather and 1 hour rain forecast French weather provider https://www.home-assistant.io/components/sensor.meteo_france/
• WeMo Humidifiers This includes support for the Holmes Smart Humidifier as well https://www.home-assistant.io/components/fan.wemo/
• GreenEye Monitor The GreenEye Monitor (GEM) integration for Home Assistant allows you to create sensors for the various data channels of the GEM. Each current transformer (CT) channel, pulse counter, and temperature sensor appears in Home Assistant as a sensor, and can be used in automations.https://www.home-assistant.io/components/greeneye_monitor/

Breaking Changes

• Mailgun, Twilio, Dialogflow Platforms have been changed to use Webhooks Home Assistant will now generate unique URL’s which these services will need to call. Before upgrading, check the docs for these components!https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant/pull/17464 https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant/pull/17715 https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant/pull/17804

• Vera Climate Platform will now report different states The Vera platform will now use standard Home Assistant climate states, instead of those states which were provided by Vera. This will improve other integrations like the Amazon Echo and Google Home reporting the incorrect state. https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant/pull/17892

• Sense Energy Monitor now has binary sensors Watch out for changes to your entity IDs. https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant/pull/17645

• Pollen.com gets some more accuracy Previously, Pollen.com calculated historical and forecasted trends by merely looking at two data points and determining the slope – not very accurate. This PR shifts to a numpy-driven method (a moving average) that adds more data points and greatly increases the accuracy. Breaking Change: Because of the longer statistical view, trend attributes will no longer return a value of “Flat”. All automations relying on that value will need to be updated. https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant/pull/18107

Other Noteworthy Updates

LoveLace

• Lovelace Editing Lovelace is getting ready for release! There is a super alpha release, allowing you to change your Lovelace UI from the UI. Requires that your card has an ID specified.

• Splitting Lovelace Config has been removed If you have split your Lovelace YAML files up, similar to how you would split up your configuration.yaml file, this has now been removed.You can still use !secret, and !include has been added. However using these you won’t be able to do much in the new frontend editor.

General

• Refactor for the Amazon Echo Climate support A few fixes in this release, which should allow voice control of your climate devices via the Amazon Echo a bit easier now.
