Abstract:

This work proposes the implementation of an intelligent system based on Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) and the Internet of Things (IoT) for real-time water consumption monitoring using a digital water meter. The research is framed within a qualitative, empirical, and descriptive approach, aiming to analyze the potential of emerging technologies in improving water resource management, reducing losses, and increasing the efficiency of measurement processes. The proposed system uses the Arduino Uno microcontroller as a processing unit, due to its accessibility, flexibility, low cost, and compatibility with different computing platforms, including Windows and Linux operating systems. The solution aims to overcome limitations of traditional measurement models, such as reading errors, malfunctions, and equipment inaccuracies, allowing for the continuous collection, processing, and transmission of data on water consumption. The integration between IoT, smart sensors, and digital water meters represents an innovative alternative to support decision-making, promote the sustainable use of water, and contribute to the digital transformation of water supply systems.
