2006 BC Hydro Sustainability prize winner Energy Aware is running a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter and they just hit their Kickstarter goal of $95,000 in 10 days.
The successful campaign is for Neurio: Home Intelligence, a new technology that promises to makes an ordinary home smart.
What is Neurio? Imagine if one day the same washing machine you’ve always used started reminding you when you forgot to dry your clothes. Neurio is a “home intelligence” technology that makes your ordinary appliances smart and your home more efficient.
Using a wifi power sensor and a cloud service with some smart pattern detection algorithms, Neurio monitors your home’s electricity to figure out what your appliances are up to—without the need to install sensors on every device.
