Cloogy. Now you can control all the electricity produced and consumed at your home through a single user-friendly platform.

Cloogy

Start by combining your Cloogy kit with the equipment we propose you. Then just use your smartphone, tablet, computer or Cloogy Monitor® to remotely monitor the energy production at you house, the electrical equipment consumption, the thermostats and the lighting. All in real time and from a distance, through a single platform. Gain an even greater control over your consumption through Cloogy® Plug Power, a kit that includes two Power Plugs.

Cloogy® Power Plug is ideal for those who have several electrical equipment across their home or office and want to achieve higher efficiency levels. The Cloogy® can control and monitor up to eleven Power Plugs at the same time. These are the required equipment for those who already have a Cloogy® kit and want to extend its control, by also monitoring their solar energy production system. This is the reality that we are working on! Energy Monitor. Please note that a new version of this project is now available here.

Energy Monitor

Over the last few months we have been working with the extremely capable Michael Margolis, author of Arduino Cookbook. We have a few projects underway with Michael which we will reveal as they come of age but to get us going we have this rather nice electricity data logger which accurately records electricity usage over time with 1W precision. The project uses the pulse from the LED on a modern electricity meter, as this is also an output common to other types of meter you will be able to measure other pulse meter outputs such as water and gas. This energy data logger project has been built to sense each LED pulse from, in this case, an electricity meter. Documentation - Waspmote - Wireless Sensor Networks Open Source Platform. Waspmote is an open source wireless sensor platform specially focused on the implementation of low consumption modes to allow the sensor nodes ( "motes" ) to be completely autonomous and battery powered, offering a variable lifetime between 1 and 5 years depending on the duty cycle and the radio used.

Documentation - Waspmote - Wireless Sensor Networks Open Source Platform

Let's know more about how Waspmote was born. It all started 5 years since Cooking Hacks - Libelium open hardware division- designed the famous "Arduino XBee Shield" in collaboration with the Arduino Team and gave it to community as the first open hardware shield for Arduino (2007) . Our idea was to create wireless sensor networks with Arduino + XBee (already 5 years ago!).

However, Arduino couldn't fit the Libelium's corporate customers requirements due to two main reasons. On the one hand it is the consumption: the 5V-3.3V regulator can not be turned off and thus it is not possible to implement a sleep mode. Index Go to Index1.

AMON is a data format, developed by AMEE, suitable for the description and exchange of metering and monitoring device data by anyone who has a need to describe or exchange, in a computer readable format, metering or monitoring device data.

AMON vs. SensorML/O&M

You can find the full details of AMON at However, AMON is not the only standard in the field of metering & monitoring device data exchange. One prominent alternative is the combination of Sensor Model Language (SensorML) and Observations & Measurements [XML Implementation] (O&M), from the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC). Amee.github.com/AMON/ AMEE has developed a storage platform for metering/monitoring device data and a RESTful, web-based API for storing and retrieving this data using the AMON data format.

amee.github.com/AMON/

However, the use of AMON is not limited to this context, and a key aim of the AMON data format is to advocate an open way of describing and exchanging metering/monitoring data that is independent of any API or system. The use of AMON in metering/monitoring devices and/or other systems is encouraged. In the AMON data format, the “devices” section is used to represent physical or virtual metering/monitoring devices and their data.
