MQTT Kindlet

Description

Making use of an energy-efficient, lightweight, portable, and highly “”glanceable”” device – the e-Ink Amazon Kindle – to connect to energy data delivered over the lightweight MQTT protocol.

The app requires the Kindle to be “jailbroken”, and uses data publically available from bmreports and the realtime carbon site powered by AMEE, via test.mosquitto.org

The idea is to generate dashboard images to use as screensavers on the Kindle when it is “sleeping”.
