Intel, a company in the integrated circuit business, presented the most important trends in smart buildings for the year 2017.
Energy Efficiency - Ambitious sustainability goals will continue to drive the adoption of smart building technology. Reducing the carbon footprint of a given property requires both close monitoring and useful information about energy and water use in the building. Advanced sensors and analytics will empower building managers to better control their assets and reduce energy waste that can be harmful to the environment.
Asset Optimization – Increasing operational efficiency will also be a major focus. Instead of taking an expensive "trait and replace" approach to upgrading building systems and assets, managers can improve operations with technology solutions that allow them to adapt existing systems with sensors, ensuring the delivery of asset data to the cloud.
Meeting occupant expectations and delivering new experiences – As consumers increasingly embrace a connected lifestyle, there will be a demand for more transparent building environments that offer personalized experiences based on occupant preferences.
Achieving Autonomy with Emerging Technologies - Machine Learning and 5G Connectivity will work together to make building management a more autonomous task.
Machine Learning – allows building systems to collect, process, and use information collected from systems to provide a real-time, practical view for building managers to make quick decisions about maintenance and overall operations.
5G Connectivity - It enables more advanced data exchange between smart buildings that will be an important part of the foundations for smart cities of the future.
