Abstract

It is vital for us to efficiently use the electric energy in our everyday life. The project is based on three main cores which are the Mobile Application, Server and Micro-Controller that can be installed to their everyday appliances. The solution helps to point out the usage of every appliance and highlight the most consuming appliance. The three main core that are used is Xamarin Form as the Platform for the mobile application, Raspberry Pi 4 as the micro-controller and a Database Server for data storing. The three main cores communicate with each other using the REST API interfaces. The Xamarin Form permits the application to be used in three most used operating systems which are Android, IOS and Windows. The test result of the system assists users to manage their home routine more efficiently to avoid wastage and provides an affordable product that can be used by all layers of community. The project has undergone a user experience test and has proven to alert wastage of appliances in home and thus reduce the electrical usage.
