Imagine Cup, with the slogan “Dream it, Build it, Live it,” is aiming to promote new ideas, encourage students to exceed their limits and discover their current and future potential. The Greek-Cypriot team from the University of Nicosia presented LADYBUG, an innovative application that allows households to monitor the electricity consumption of every device in the home through an internet-based platform and a special mobile application, which also proposes ways to save energy.
