Detailed Description
Energy Efficiency
The usage of automated functions already save energy in every installation. Especially the usage of KNX has a lot of potential for further energy savings, which can contribute to a better environmental footprint. Be extending KNX to more functions and applications, energy savings of up to 60% can be realised. Thanks to the flexibility of KNX, these functions can easily be implemented in this installation
Innovation
Smart homes and buildings are always an upgrade in comparison to a conventional installation. Not only automated functions and a higher level of comfort contribute to a higher living standard, but also the possibility to be ready for coming innovations. Thanks to the usage of KNX, the door has been opened to integrate new innovative solutions, using the worldwide STANDARD for home and building control.

Customers Description
TODAY’S ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI) SOLUTIONS are not sentient in the manner popularized in science fiction depicting scores of self-aware (and typically nefarious) androids. Even so, the ability to arm such systems with the ability to directly sense and respond to their in-situ environment is critical.
Why? In the future, our experiences will be smart, intuitive and informed by analytics that are not seen but felt via new business, personal and operational engagement models. Enabling this interaction requires AI applications that can sense, analyze and respond to their environment in an intelligent and interactive manner. Without requiring the end user to write, understand or interpret code.
“Sensitive” Artificial Intelligence enables:
✓ More productive use of expanded (big, often unstructured) information sources.
✓ Intuitive man-machine interactions (no code-speak here!).
✓ Adaptive, immersive experiences and environments.
