Abstract


This study provides information between tenants and landlords on the use of the Internet of Things for power and water monitoring systems. It is one way to make reading meters and water meters easier to access using the available internet connection. The developed application using the android studio software is installed on a smartphone/tablet and verified to fully working on android versions from 4.1 (jellybean) to android 9.0 (pie). Tests were carried out in a household where the prototype was installed in a residential apartment. The data collected was monitored in the application and viewed by tenants and landlords. The results from the mean comparison of the power and volume readings measured by the wattmeter and water meter claim that the readings from the conventional meters and designed prototype have no significant difference using the Mann-Whitney U test. Evaluations were conducted showing that the device and the developed application using IoT is reliable, accurate, functional and user-friendly to use by tenants and landlords.
