The Enterprise Smart Outlet is a system made up of a smart outlet, a Node.js server, and a companion iOS application. It builds on the already existing market of smart power outlets and aims to bring that type of functionality fully scaled up to the enterprise level. The smart outlet connects to the Node.js server and sends its power readings. The iOS application connects to the Node.js server to receive all power readings from all the connected smart outlets and can also toggle the power on and off for each outlet.

All forms of interpreting are inherently social; they involve relationships among at least three people and two languages.
