January 24th, 2024The Open, Tech Agnostic, Horizontal Future of Building IoT Infrastructure
The Building Internet of Things (BIoT) market is evolving. Where previously, the focus of the market was to deliver the prerequisite technologies in the BIoT hardware stack, such as devices, sensors, and connectivity. Now, we are seeing a transition to more results-based and analytics-driven applications that seek to bring about certain outcomes, be that cost […]
Big Tech Muscles in on the Workplace Experience Tech Market
You know a market or trend is maturing when the world’s biggest companies start to take interest. Tesla may have led the development of the modern electric vehicle (EV) but we only knew the EV market was here to stay when all major automotive players began to develop their own electric models. For many, Apple’s […]
Big Tech Still Loves Smart Buildings
Despite the turbulence of 2020, smart buildings are still high on the agenda for the world’s biggest technology companies. This week, Samsung and Microsoft announced a global collaboration focused on digitally transforming the real estate development and property management industries. While pushing out the standard promises and benefits for all stakeholders, the collaboration actually makes […]
Early Innovators at the Forefront of Digital Twin Technology for Commercial Buildings
This article was written by Daphne Tomlinson, Senior Research Associate at Memoori. Digital Twins, virtual models of a process, product or service that allow for data analysis and system monitoring via simulations, are playing an increasing role in IoT and digital transformation in buildings. Projects today span multiple building sectors, including commercial real estate, retail, […]
“As Buildings Evolve, Elevators can also Evolve in Ways we have Not Seen Before”
Office workers in New York City spend a cumulative 5.9 years, per year, in elevators, according to an IBM study. The research showed that NYC office workers spend a further 16.6 years, per year, waiting for those elevators, meaning a cumulative of 22.5 years of potentially productive work time is wasted in the elevator process. […]
Smart Building Technology: Maintaining the Balance Between Energy & Data
The power efficiencies we expect from microchips according to Moore’s law are decreasing, leading to growing power demand from computing technology. However, we are gaining energy efficiency from smart technology in buildings, cities, and elsewhere. That smart-tech generates massive amounts of data, which then demands huge amounts of power. We can and we must build […]
