Water Usage Sustainer

Water are known as the important resources and the management of these two resources is one of the prime challenge to the world especially a developing country like Malaysia. Citizens often do not aware of their daily usage of water. Therefore, this project named Smart Metering System is designed and proposed to create a better understanding and awareness towards the value and importance of water energy, energy saving and the innovation towards further improvement to existing system. The purpose of this project is to design a smart metering system that can observe and measure the water meter meter daily. Besides, the second purpose is to develop feedback to user about his/her water consumption details. This system contributes to the green infrastructure policy of Malaysia by helping the user to conserve and alert about the consumption of water. In this system, a Pixy camera is used to observe the water meter and proceed with image processing. Then, the water consumption is compared with an average consumption of a residence house. If the consumption exceeds the standard consumption, an alert message will be sent to the user’s phone via Wi-Fi Module NodeMCU ESP8266. The concept of this project also met the ninth goal “Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure”, eleventh goal “Sustainable cities and communities”, twelfth goal “Responsible consumption and production” in Global Sustainable Development Goals listed by the United Nations.

 

Sustainability of product

  • Use image processing to automated the reading of water meter
  • Upload the processed value to cloud so that user can track water usage on long distance
  • Notify user if water usage is exceed

 


 

 

About Us

Run by undergraduates from USM IEEE student branch with the guidance of our counselor Dr Rosmiwati, we are the main members of IEEE USM Student Branch.
Innovation and development. Both words represent the core of USM IEEE student branch. We offer our members in USM opportunities to develop a multitude of skill sets and networking opportunities in preparation to face challenges in future career in engineering. Conferences, competitions, technical workshops, industrial visits are one of the few activities that we have conducted to encourage and empower the new generation of Malaysia’s graduates.
Here, as a USM IEEE Student Branch, we provide a platform to connect the undergraduates and postgraduates alike with representative from various companies. Most of our members have an early exposure to their related working field, thus our members are able to develop themselves well before graduation.
As our society’s pace is growing, we believe that the only way to truly know USM IEEE Student Branch is to join us as part of our team.
