The statistics sensor platform is consuming the state from other sensors. Beside the maximal and the minimal value also the total, the mean, the median, the variance, and the standard deviation are as attributes available. If it's a binary sensor then only the state changes are counted.

To enable the statistics sensor, add the following lines to your configuration.yaml:

# Example configuration.yaml entry
sensor:
  - platform: statistics
    entity_id: sensor.cpu
  - platform: statistics
    entity_id: binary_sensor.movement

Configuration variables:

  • entity_id (Required): The entity to monitor.
  • name (Optional): Name of the sensor to use in the frontend.
  • sampling_size (Optional): Size of the sampling. If the limit is reached then the values are rotated. Defaults to 20.
