4 results about "Automatic meter reading" patented technology

Automatic meter reading (AMR) is the technology of automatically collecting consumption, diagnostic, and status data from water meter or energy metering devices (gas, electric) and transferring that data to a central database for billing, troubleshooting, and analyzing. This technology mainly saves utility providers the expense of periodic trips to each physical location to read a meter. Another advantage is that billing can be based on near real-time consumption rather than on estimates based on past or predicted consumption. This timely information coupled with analysis can help both utility providers and customers better control the use and production of electric energy, gas usage, or water consumption.

Automatic meter reading device and meter reading control method thereof

The application discloses an automatic meter reading device and a meter reading control method thereof, and relates to the technical field of automatic meter reading, wherein the automatic meter reading device comprises a shell, an image acquisition assembly and a shielding part. The inner side of the shell is formed with an inner cavity, and one end of the shell is formed with a mounting part. The mounting part is used for connecting a meter structure, so that the indication information of the meter structure can be displayed in the inner cavity. The image acquisition assembly comprises a camera unit and an illumination unit. The camera unit and the illumination unit are arranged in the inner cavity and correspond to the mounting part, and are used for acquiring the indication information of the meter structure. The technical scheme provided by the application can isolate the interference of unstable external light on the image acquisition process through the arrangement of the shielding part, avoid the overexposure, underexposure or ghosting problem of the collected image caused by the change of external light and environmental reflection, and does not need to repeatedly adjust the shooting parameters to reacquire the image, so that the stability of image acquisition is ensured.
