Geographic analysis of water conditions
An apparatus for aggregation of water condition at household appliances comprises a communication interface and a controller. The communication interface is configured to send a reporting message indicative of data collected by at least one appliance to a central server. The controller is configured to receive an analysis message from the central server. The analysis message indicates a condition of water from the at least one appliance or a condition of water in a geographic area associated with the at least one appliance. The controller is configured to provide an alert in response to the analysis message.
1. An apparatus for aggregation of water type at household appliances, the apparatus comprising:
a communication interface configured to send a reporting message indicative of sensor data collected by at least one appliance to a central server, the sensor data indicative of a user of the at least one appliance; and
a controller configured to receive an analysis message from the central server based on an analysis of the sensor data indicative of the user,
wherein the analysis message indicates a type of water from the at least one appliance,
wherein the controller is configured to provide an alert in response to the analysis message,
wherein the central server includes a water type database that correlates geographic areas with the type of the water.
2. The apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising:
at least one flow sensor configured to determine a flow of the water for the at least one appliance.
3. The apparatus of claim 2 , wherein the controller is configured to provide the alert based on the flow of the water.
4. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the data collected by at least one appliance is related to at least one of illness, malnutrition, or dehydration of the user of the at least one appliance.
5. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the data collected by at least one appliance is indicative of a bacterium or virus.
6. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the data collected by at least one appliance is indicative of an appearance or a condition of a user.
7. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the reporting message include data indicative of a geographic location of the at least one appliance.
8. The apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising:
a filter, wherein the controller is configured to change a parameter of the filter in response to the analysis message.
9. The apparatus of claim 8 , wherein the parameter includes a particle size trap, a thickness, or a variable path selected in response to the analysis message.
10. The apparatus of claim 1 , further comprising:
a water dispenser configured to selectively insert an additive to the water in response to the analysis message.
11. The apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the additive comprises a nutritional supplement, a flavor, an antibacterial agent, or a medicine.
12. The apparatus of claim 10 , wherein the water dispenser is a faucet or a water heater.
