Anthony Rowe, a Carnegie Mellon engineer, developed a home monitoring system using wireless sensors. These sensors track energy usage of appliances and allow remote control via a laptop or iPhone. The system is easy to install due to its wireless nature, and data is transmitted over Wi-Fi. Rowe's software, supported by the National Science Foundation, provides visual data analysis. The system helps users monitor energy consumption, reduce costs, and minimize their carbon footprint, contributing to environmental conservation.
