RapidMetering is a remote water meter reading solution designed to improve harsh meter-reading environments for analog meters and reduce inconvenience and risks associated with manual inspections. A compact camera is attached to an analog water meter to automatically capture the dial/indicator, and the captured images are converted into digital readings using AI deep learning for number recognition. This data can be used as the basis for customer billing and supporting evidence, and it is also valuable for social safety-net services such as monitoring seniors living alone and other vulnerable groups. It is currently used by more than 25 local governments and can be expanded by combining with digital metering data or applying the approach to various analog gauges in environments such as factories.

Key Features

1
IoT platform based on the LwM2M international standard
· A solution and service that end-to-end supports analog meter image capture through AI analysis and monitoring
· Built on a proven IoT solution to ensure connectivity stability and easy scalability for large-scale device deployments
2
AI analysis and history management DB for real meter-reading images
· Include captured meter-reading images in billing statements to help resolve billing inquiries
· Achieve 99%+ image reading accuracy with AI deep learning
3
Applies to existing meters of all sizes without replacement—no major construction or water shutoff required
· No concern about increased per-diameter installation costs for meter replacement
· High effectiveness in sensitive industrial zones where water shutoffs or service interruptions can halt factory operations, as only simple installation costs are incurred
4
Enhanced durability through a waterproof and moisture-resistant structure design
· Holds NEP certification for waterproof/moisture resistance; designed with a robust double-structure
· Superior protection minimizes impact from installation site conditions and is more resistant to temperature/humidity and vibration than digital meters
· Minimizes natural self-discharge and the effects of moisture and seasonal/temperature changes
