active OCCUPANTSin automation
- Many (public) buildings inefficient- Manual control costly and effortfulAutomation- Sensors gathering context information- Composing acting services- Coordinate building environment by
anticipating on occupants’ activities
ENERGY SAVINGS
AUTOMATION in smart buildings
About 80%energy savings
Only 1/3 awareof solution
Most occupants report:- Aware of env. problems- Sustainable engagement- Accept smart solutions
- Unaware of solution- Uninvolved in solution
- Involvement in automated solution- Awareness of sustainable choices- Opportunity to act sustainable
