Inspiration
Want to know what is the difference in power-consumption between
- Water-cooker 1L vs 0.5L
- Washing mashine eco vs 90° vs 60°
- Monitor dark background vs light bg
- Dish-washer 30° vs 60°
- Big cupa coffee vs small cupa coffee
What it does
measure and collect power consumption data
How I built it
Digged into/played with Intel Edison and wrote some code ;-)
Challenges I ran into
Edimax plug ( sensor ) only 2.4 Ghz - wifi here only ( working ) 5Ghz -> solved via tethering Java bindings did not work for me -> wasted a lot of time and then used python to interface Edison Problems compiling upm
...
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
Kotlin on Edison ( think nobody has done this yet )
What I learned
Edison is a cool platform
What's next for Meter Edison
Data analysis / Visualisation - more measurements - detect patterns - replace power sensor ( no more CPU redundancy - just use ADC of Edison )
Built With
- kotlin-on-intel-edison
