special thanks to our faculty advisor
Mohammad Al Faruque
Goals
 To Prototype a lab-scale residential
energy monitoring and control system.
 To Implement an intelligent and
automatic scheduling algorithm
 To Design a user-friendly web interface
for system management
Team Organization
 Cliff Huang (Team Lead)
 XBee communication between coordinator & end devices
 Timothy Kwan
 Java application that houses scheduling algorithm,
network connectivity, database, and webserver
 Kevin Sison
 Developing frontend and backend for web application
 Vinh Trinh
 Fabricating and coding for the hardware system
Background
System
Subsystem: Hardware &
Networking
 Hardware
 Monitor power use at the plug by
tapping into Kill-A-Watt’s OpAmp
 Monitor sensor data with Arduino
 Build HVAC, Lighting, and Relay
circuits
 Networking
 Use the XBee API framework to
transmit packets between Java
program, XBees, and Arduino
controlled Xbees
 Use polling to send command
signals and receive updated sensor
data
Subsystem: Java Application
 Java Application
 Collect sensor and power use data from
XBee and update database
 Run scheduling algorithm using user
data from webserver
 Send command signals to XBee given
algorithm results
 Priority-Based Scheduling
Algorithm
 Factors considered: Electricity rate,
Home vacancy, External temperature
Subsystem: Web Application
GOAL: Build a web application that is intuitive, user-friendly,
and informative
Client-side Server-side
AJAX calls that
send JSON data
Built for use on
desktops, tablets, and
phones so users can
access their home from
anywhere!
Parts Lists & Budget
 Total System Cost
 Arduino $20x2
 Kill A Watt $20x2
 4-Gang Box $3
 Electrical Outlet $3
 XBee Module $2xx5
 Power Tail $25x2
 Relays $15
 Light Sensor $13
 Temperature Sensor $15
 XBee Explorer USB $25
 XBee Shield $25x2
 High Power LED $7x2
 12V Power Supply $5x2
 Total $398
 Individual Unit Cost
 Base Station $42
 HVAC $110
 Control Agent $82
 Monitor Agent $42
 Light + Sensors $116
Results
 Manage multiple home devices simultaneously
 Create energy efficient HVAC and lighting schedules
 View real time and historical power use from mobile
devices
 Target Audience: Increasingly busy home owners who
demand an economic and unobtrusive way to lower
monthly bills
Innovation & Business
Opportunities
 Southern California Edison (SCE) and other electric
utility companies allow customers to register and
monitor individual Zigbee devices in their home
 Agents sit on the plug rather than in the device
 Relatively low cost
 Easy to use, user-friendly web interface
 Device management does not require logging into the
utility company
 Prototyped system includes Base Station, HVAC Agent,
Lighting + Sensor Agent, Monitoring Agent, Control Agent
Plan
 Implement the historical graphs tab on the website to save
and view archived power usage
 Use a less intrusive and more economical device for the
base station, such as the Raspberry Pi
 Replace the power switch tail with self-made relay for
smaller profile and cost reduction
 Use cheaper sensors and remove the Xbee Shield to further
reduce cost. Only used for illustrative and prototyping
purposes
 Include motion sensor to detect people’s presence in the
house
 Acquire Zigbee certification and register with utility
companies

Notas del editor

  1. Use energy monitoring agents to create intelligent power schedule that leads to greener environment and lower monthly bills
  2. We’ll be reading from xbee inapi mode. Why are you using an arduino if you have an xbee. Limitation on the xbee that the more IO pins you use, the less buffer you get and less accurate the data that we are receiving. When we try to implement an entire HVAC, we need more buffer to get more accurate data. In reality, we can monitor and control a device from just one xbee.
  3. Why use xbee?Industry standardWhy use arduino?Showcase if it’s in a central place such as living room, we only need one arduino unit to control multiple devices, which has more buffer than xbee alone. Lower profile and more cost effective.
