    Abstract: A smart reading device for a water meter and a controlling method thereof are provided. The smart reading device includes a fixing component, a casing, an image capturing component, an image analyzing component, and a transmitting component. The fixing component is used to be fixed onto the water meter. The casing is disposed on the fixing component. The image capturing component is disposed in the casing for capturing a numerical display area of the water meter so as to obtain a water consumption image. The water consumption image is analyzed by the image analyzing component or a relay device to obtain a water consumption value. The transmitting component is used for transmitting the water consumption value or the water consumption image to the relay device.
