===== Project Objective =====
{{images:smartblitzmerker02t.jpg?200|Smart Blitzmerker}}
  *Development of a smart frugal metering solution, for a smart world: "Smart Blitzmerker: Bring your own Device - Get your own Data ( BYOD - GYOD ). Smart frugal metering solution, for a smarter World".
  *About the project name "Smart Blitzmerker": "Blitzmerker" is a German word, means somebody with rapid comprehension. "Blitz" is German for lighning, or photo flash, and you see meters must get some light before we can take a photo. So first photo flash or some other light on, then take a photo, and then light off to save power consumption :-). Smart Blitzmerker is then name, as unfortunately Blitzmerker is taken in the Internet, while "Smart Blitzmerker" was free, i.e. not yet used, no hits by the search engines.
