Perhaps the most chilling thing about water is how unpredictable it is. A small pipe leak or overlooked overflow in a tank can drain thousands of liters of water — and in a country where so many already struggle to get clean drinking water, that hurts. And then, of course, there is the risk of sudden flooding or waterlogging, which can result in damage to property, disrupt day-to-day life, and even pose a threat to safety.
This is where I plan to develop a Smart Water Detection & Management System. Using IoT sensors, the system would report flow, levels, and leakages in real time. If there is a leak, the user's phone would get an immediate alert. If a tank would overflow, the app also reminds the owner to shut off the supply. In flood areas, the system can warn authorities and dwellers in advance, reducing loss and acting quicker.
The target buyers include homes, apartment buildings, industries, and even municipal water boards of cities. For families, it is water bill savings and damage avoidance. For industries and city governments, it is better resource allocation and prevention of massive wastage of water.
It is a matter of concern to me because water scarcity is something we all can see around us. I have observed in most places water tanks overflowing in housing areas or water filling roads during rainy days, and it made me realize how much more smarter our systems have to get. Water is an asset, and technology can help us use it wisely.
