Schneider Electric has launched a next-level integration solution offering Australia’s first all-in-one approach to digitally managing buildings’ operations and energy consumption whilst delivering customised experiences of comfort to occupants.
Schneider’s Connected Room Solution is an IoT ecosystem which plays a pivotal role in sensing dynamic environments and making automatic and on-demand app-enabled adjustments to lighting, air-conditioning, and blinds, whilst also providing interaction with the next generation of smart building IoT devices.
This new solution can intelligently reduce the building’s energy usage on sunny days via lowering the building blinds, adjusting the lighting levels and air conditioning to minimise the need for central cooling. Various spaces on the same level may respond differently due to their unique surroundings, determined by factors including natural light, temperature and human activities.
Paul Crothers, General Manager of Marketing & Partner Solutions - Digital Buildings from Schneider Electric, said, “Traditionally, buildings were built as a fixed layout. To make changes to a space or to the functionality of the space, you had to physically shift equipment and people.
Now with the new Connected Room Solution, technology allows us to reconfigure the space based on how it is being utilised, and when the building is occupied it provides live and dynamic adjustment of environmental conditions for the users immediate surroundings.”
“Schneider has identified a strong market demand for highly adaptable solutions to the building’s integration systems. We’re delighted to see the Connected Room Solution’s modular feature-set helping organisations conveniently change floor layouts when they need to reduce density in the office.”
“Ultimately with this new solution, we’re looking to support future-proof buildings that offer safer, healthier and more comfortable people-centric indoor environments while increasing engineering efficiencies and building value.”
“Having achieved some fantastic outcomes globally with the Connected Room Solution in buildings, we are proud to bring it to Australia and help meet a need in our local market.”
The new solution boasts a mobile app for remote control and supports Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity. Apart from being easily applied to both new buildings and retrofitting, the new solution also enables easy expansion in the future.
