Abstract: The purpose of this project is to present a product designed to assist with urban home water billing system in India. The project integrates a water flow rate sensor, designed to create a carefree solution to urban water metering and monitoring of the water usage using cloud, mobile communications and mobile application. Arduino, a rapid prototyping ATMEGA328Pbased microcontroller based platform is used to develop a prototype which measures the water flow rate through the household pipes and sends an SMS at the end of every month .In addition to that, detailed water usage with charts and graphs can be obtained from a cloud platform called “thingspeak†and another cloud platform called pushing box sends a notification to the user’s mobile. A mobile app is also designed to serve as a user interface helping to access the cloud and paying the bill through Bengaluru One Website.
