The continuing evolution of internet of things (IoT) technology is redefining the world in which we live and the ways we interact with that technology. It is now possible for systems to control power, security and HVAC in offices and homes. Today’s building automation professionals must consider the growing need for full and seamless integration, which incorporates a variety of different components and elements. These specialist system controls can include: power distribution; HVAC; door entry; presence detectors; security; audio/video; and emergency lighting. Schneider Electric offers technology, combined with aesthetics, to upgrade homes and offices to EcoStruxure Buildings Operation or KNX, where tasks are automated, allowing occupants to benefit from technology and save on power bills. Schneider Electric offers Wiser, a full home control solution, integrating heating and lighting management into a single, user-friendly solution.
