Challenge

Handling high-frequency data streams from multiple IoT devices and providing low-latency visualizations without compromising on dashboard performance.

Solution

Utilized MQTT for lightweight device communication, implemented a time-series database (InfluxDB) for efficient data storage, and used WebSockets for real-time dashboard updates.

Outcome

Successfully reduced average household energy consumption by 15% for active users. Received 'Green Tech of the Year' nomination at the local startup awards.

Project Overview

As climate change becomes an increasing concern, EcoTrack empowers individuals to take control of their carbon footprint. The platform aggregates data from various IoT sensors placed around the house, offering a live dashboard of energy consumption, water usage, and waste management. Users can set sustainability goals and compete with friends in eco-challenges.
