This LG Hombot integration enables you to control and monitor your LG Hombot robot vacuum, also known as Roboking in some countries.

Before you can utilize this platform, you need to connect a Wi-Fi dongle to your robot and install Wi-Fi support.

This is a fork of ericpignet's LG Hombot integration. Since the original implementation is no longer compatible with the latest version of Home Assistant and is no longer actively maintained by ericpignet, I have taken the initiative to fork the project and provide necessary updates.
