Intel’s Intelligent Home
Intel put together a very elegant concept for a energy dashboard that works off of the processors they manufacture. The micro site includes overview documentation as well as a demo and video of the system in action. It's crazy to think that something as significant and commonplace as our energy monitoring has been restricted to a metal monstrosity with a spinning arrow at the back of our homes. Even worse, as an apartment dweller I don't even know where I look to view my energy consumption levels. The only transparency I get on that matter is through my monthly bills - and no one really wants to look at that on a regular basis. Hopefully we see more innovations on energy monitoring soon, and hopefully we see it available at the consumer level even sooner.
