2. WHAT TO EXPECT INTELLIGENT BUILDING INTELLIGENT BUILDING FOCUS
Previous Understanding
First CMap
Current Understanding
Final CMap
INTELLIGENT BUILDING FOCUS
Communication Systems
Relation to Intelligent Building
Importance
What Systems are Available
How do Systems Compare to Expectations

3. INTELLIGENT BUILDING (Pre-AE 790 Understanding)
Expectations:
Building Systems Affected
MEP, Lighting, Security
Building Phases Affected
Operational
Commercial = Residential
Expensive
Automatic Functions
Doors, Lights, HVAC, Entertainment
Personality
Communicate with User

4. INTELLIGENT BUILDING (Pre-AE 790 Understanding)

5. INTELLIGENT BUILDING (POST-AE 790 Understanding)

6. INTELLIGENT BUILDING (POST-AE 790 Understanding)
Expectations:
Building Systems Affected
All – from A to P
Building Phases Affected
All – from Design to Demolition
Commercial vs. Residential
Not All Expensive (Moore’s Law)
Automatic Functions Just Beginning
Sensors, Information Storage, Robotics, AI, etc.
Personality vs. Necessary Information Transfer
Control Systems, Networks, BIM, etc.

7. INTELLIGENT BUILDING FOCUS: – Communication Systems
Where In a Post-AE790 Understanding Does It Fit
Why Is It Important
What Systems are Currently Available
How Do These Systems Compare to Expectations

8. Communication – (Topic 1 of 4)
Where Does It Fit In
Building Phase: Operation
Building Systems: Any or All

9. Communication – (Topic 2 of 4)
Why Is It Important
Saves Time
Saves Money
Reduces Stress

10. Communication Products – (Topic 3 of 4)
What Systems are Currently Available
Alarm/Security Systems
U.C.ME (Control-See)
LukWerks (WiLife)
iControl System (iControl)
Home “Awareness” Systems
Home Heartbeat (Eaton)

11. Communication – U.C.ME

12. Communication – U.C.ME
Notifies users on alarm situations via SMS, WAP, RSS, Phone, Fax,  and Multimedia.
OPC (OLE (Object Linking and Embedding) for Process Control) client alarm notification and analysis software.
Supports bidirectional communication via SMS and Phone. Users may acknowledge alarms, query or change tag values via SMS or phone.
Applications: Building management, Security systems, Industrial control, Water treatment, Healthcare.

13. Communication – LukWerks

14. Communication – LukWorks
Live video monitoring of up to six cameras
Motion triggered recordings save disk space
Powerful search and playback tools
and cell phone alerts
Free remote viewing for anywhere anytime access

15. Communication – iControl
                                                                                                                       

16. Communication – iControl
Remotely monitor heating/AC and lighting levels
Schedule heat, cooling or lighting
Schedule automatic turn on/off of your energy systems
Remotely know if windows and doors are closed, that lights are on or off
Remotely take snapshots triggered by motion sensors in a home office, front or back door

17. Communication – Home Heartbeat

18. Communication – Home Heartbeat
Allows homeowners an all-in-one glimpse at the status and condition of their homes.
The system can be set up to send s or text message alerts to cell phones when a problem is detected.
Components use low-frequency radio chips to form a monitoring network throughout the home.
The system performs a "health check" that occurs every 24 hours between the base and all components to ensure they are operating properly.

19. Communication (Topic 4 of 4)
Alarm/Security Only???
What about learning – will I receive s or texts every time the cat or dog crosses the motion sensor
2-way communication – Limited Availability
Why not notify maintenance when service is required
Data Saving – how much data is kept – for how long
What about Gas leak, Open Windows (auto closers),
Options are limited by amount or type of sensors
Why are these systems installed after construction – why not installed during construction – as part of infrastructure
Systems seem to lack “intelligence” – Reactive vs. Proactive
How Do These Systems Compare to Expectations

20. Summary of Understanding
Pre- Vs. Post-AE 790

21. Before AE-790

22. After AE 790
