Raspberry as proxy scanner

[vzlgdu]

Hi, can I configure a Raspberry as a proxy Scanner like ESP32?

Thanks

Howdy, and sorry for the delay in getting back to you.

I'm not aware of any solution for doing this, but that said I haven't searched for one. It would be possible to build something, by implementing a BaseHaRemoteScanner via a custom integration or via the esphome protocol.

If you have 50 raspberry pi's that you want to use then this might be worth pursuing, but if you have only a couple, then buying a handful of esp32 boards for under $10 would probably work out a lot cheaper, depending on the value of your time.
