My idea is to use a touch interface universal remote that is linked to all smart devices in the house. Through my research I discovered that a lot of energy is lost through standby power. By using a sensor in each room that detects when no one is in the room, the remote can shut off anything still on. This will be accomplished by using Wifi and Bluetooth technology. The remote will be able to identify each individual device and track its energy usage in a nice simple visual way. This information will then be presented back to the user on the remote with colour codes and information. The remote will be able to identify energy problems, give scary facts of what is to come money wise and then suggest tips and behavioural patterns to prevent sufficient energy wastage. My target users will be anyone with a fairly large home containing lots of high powered smart devices.
