Automated Meter Reading (AMR) is the system that reads utility meters (electricity, gas, water) electronically instead of manual reading. Meters include microcontrollers and communication hardware (radio transmitter or cellular modem) to send consumption data to a central collection point. You manage this infrastructure: deploying meters, collecting readings, validating data, and integrating with billing systems. A typical workflow: customer's meter sends consumption data every hour or day (via RF mesh or cellular), data aggregates at collection point, you validate (no spikes or missing readings), then bill based on validated data.
