SignalsEverywhere: Monitoring Itron ERT Smart Meters on Android

Over on her YouTube channel SignalsEverywhere, Sarah has uploaded her latest video showing how it is possible to monitor Itron ERT smart meters on an Android device.  Smart meters are used to wirelessly monitor the usage of residential utilities such as water, gas, and electricity. With an RTL-SDR and some decoding software, it is possible to monitor the data coming from your own and your neighbours meters (at least for certain brands of meter).

In her video, Sarah shows how she compiled the rtl_amr decoder software for Android, and created her own Android app called "AndAMR" for displaying the data decoded by rtl_amr. The rest of the video shows how to set up and use the app.
