Smart Homes and IoT

The Internet of Things (IoT) is now almost mainstream. There are a lot of internet-enable devices such as smart sensors, connected appliances, connected medical appliances and of course smart phones. These devices are all constantly generating big data dependent on individual lifestyles. In particular, smart homes are increasingly a growing topic of interest amongst IoT technologies. Informetis, provides a cloud based service which, through the use of a ‘single clamp’ sensor, provides consumers with an ‘itemised view’ of their electricity bill. In other words, the Informetis solution can transform ordinary and ‘non-connected’ appliances such as fridges, washing machines and microwaves into ‘virtual’ smart appliances. Your task is to design and implement an application which complements the itemised power consumption data (that we will provide) with other 3rd party data such as temperature, personal information and social demographics data to make the combined user experience more useful and fun. Your ultimate goal is to make the user far more engaged with their energy consumption than they are today!
