Data can create a more human-centred workplace
Smart buildings use data to create more human-centred environments. But how do they do that, and what does it actually look like?
In a smart building, sensors monitor the way space is used and adjust the physical environment in response.
Lighting responds organically to occupancy and ambient light.
Lights automatically brighten or dim to comfortable levels.
Ambient light is harvested and enables luminaires to further conserve energy by dimming when not required.
Heating, ventilation and cooling responds to human presence.
Occupancy information is shared via local integration or Cloud API enabling heating, ventilation, and cooling systems to optimise their performance.
Web-enabled devices and inputs send data to connected internal and external ecosystems.
Connected sensors and end-points share information with mesh network.
Integrated luminaire sensors wirelessly contribute information across the broader luminaire community.
Information feeds into external analytics and monitoring systems.
API access allows devices and apps to customise output and provides for centralised monitoring and override.
Beacons within the smart-lighting solution enable wayfinding for the user to navigate their way throughout the interior of a building through their smartphone app
Artificial Intelligence platforms can consume all available data to optimise building efficiency
Smart buildings analyse and learn from data, autonomously adjusting output in real-time for maximum employee comfort and productivity.
