Abstract
New research trends in energy grids and water networks push toward ICT solutions for allowing remote metering of consumptions. In the paper, after an introduction to the European Standards on smart metering, a visual sensor thought to solve typical metering problems in water public networks is described. Particular detail is given to its hardware and software solutions and to the perspective of integration with analogous gas and electric energy metering devices.
