Meter Reading System
Many traditional meter owners complain that they often receive unexpectedly huge utility bills at the end of the month. Manual data collection does not allow them to constantly monitor utility consumption levels and, if necessary, limit their energy usage, not to mention that it is quite a laborious procedure.
Homeowners need an easy-to-use solution to read meters automatically and provide them with real-time data on their utility consumption.
Challenge
