Human-Centric Building Automation
Thanks for joining me on my thinking-out-loud journey to better understand new approaches evolving in our industry in the area of Human-Centric Building Automation. These new approaches involve a process that starts with the people you're designing for and ends with solutions tailor-made to suit their needs.
New and evolving human-centric technologies are driving a shift from measuring the usual empirical variables to actually sensing people and their bio and social feedback. Our core variables -- temperature, humidity, draft/airspeed, light levels, etc. -- still rule the control equation, but now deep personal information is accessible. Through wearable, through smartphones, through social media, we are at last able to quantify such things as health, feeling, opinion, desire, and satisfaction, and factor them all into the control equation.
