Internet of things

I love this theme, many people doesn't follow App programs as they have to enter information, the lost the interest,. My app will work with specialised sensors into the house to track real time behaviour and energy consumption in order to provide a plan for reduce the usage. It would use third party data to help people to enter basic information.

Intelligent lift


Microsoft Research is taking the limits of artificial intelligence to a whole new level with the development of elevators to remember routines each user. During the learning process the system was able to learn the behavior of people to predict their destiny. 

The team in charge of the project for three months tested the behavior of sensors located opposite the lifts. These, in turn, monitored routine users, no additional programming or facial recognition software.

Parce


This is a device like Belkin. You can turn on and off devices to reduce energy, and it use an App.  The thing is my App is change behaviour driven, from energy waste routines to saver ones.   I'll stick with the purpose of my App, however it is a interesting producto to look at.
