Energymeter: Prepaid electicity / Bluetooth enabled.

I want to do good final yr project: H/W + S/W .
New Ideas welcome.

Here r few i'm thinking about.
1) Prepaid Elecricity using Smartcard.

2) Bluetooth for energymeter reading so that electricity board official doesn't have to visit each and every house. (or for any other data collection, e.g. railway track parameters measurement )

I know i havent given through details/specifications, coz i havent finalised which project to do.

Please reply even if u have whit of idea regarding this. New ideas welcome.

Anybody intrested in doing/sharing project work thru internet.

hey,
your projects sound good.

Where i work, we do pre-paid water metering systems and data logging with GSM.

Cell phones/bluetooth/GSM are the way to go now, they are impressive too.

I am keen on doing projects thru the internet.

Let me know.

Mike

Please give me the basic block diagrams and basic circuits
