Project Jarvis is designed with Artificial Intelligence (A.I) in both software and hardware which allows the computer system to make smart decisions based on environmental factors. This means the system can help save energy in your home, reducing your monthly bills exponentially and saving the Earth! That’s not all though, Jarvis is a personal assistant found throughout your home and Android device. He can make you coffee in the morning, wake you up with weather and you can even speak to him. You can even tell him to switch off all the lights in your room before you go to bed and it will be done instantly. Do you have a complex maths equation or assignment? Not to worry, Jarvis can answer all your questions and even complete full research reports for you.
Jarvis is the name of Iron Man’s computer system which manages his home, hence the name of this project. The main aspect of Project Jarvis is to help save electricity in your home which then helps save the Earth and of course, helps save a bit more money each month. The electricity usage is logged per room into an SD card on an open source micro controller such as an Arduino or Raspberry Pi, I chose Arduino. The code on the MCU then interacts with a larger more complex network known as a neural network which has been programmed in a separate application. This software then makes intelligent decisions using the environment and its sensors to help beat the current months data which is still on the SD card. Jarvis will attempt to save more energy than the previous month without getting in the way of your usual living style.
