  1. I want to monitor every electrical outlet in my home
    • Measure Voltage
    • Measure amperes
    • Write logs to a database
    • create reports, dashboardOutlets can be monitored via network
  2. Outlets can be monitored via network
    • each module plugs in-line between outlet and device
    • each module is wireless (encrypted)
    • Open the main application and attempt to autodetect nodes (also supports manual add)
  3. The application controls everything (written inĀ standard LAMPP stackĀ using CodeIgniter framework)
    • user can input cost per unit of energy
    • app calculates kilowatt hours based on user input and collected data
    • the app can signal a node to break the circuit, turning off the device it is attached to
    • the app supports scheduling tasks, calendar functionality
    • Set up energy profiles for certain seasons, or events
