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

Project X is a magnificent 87.6m mega yacht requiring elite automation and absolute reliability. While the vessel possessed premium hardware, its original system lacked seamless integration. Our company completely revolutionized the yacht's technological backbone by auditing, mapping, and reprogramming the entire vessel from scratch without replacing a single piece of hardware. We engineered a flawless, zero-latency tri-protocol ecosystem joining Crestron for elite user interfaces, DALI for microscopic lighting control, and KNX as the unshakable foundation. The decentralized KNX network coordinates marine HVAC fan coils with motorized blinds to manage extreme tropical thermal loads seamlessly. Enhanced by advanced scene mapping and automated cruising chronoprograms, Project X proves that KNX software optimization can effortlessly elevate maritime infrastructure into a 7-star luxury experience.
