Like “a Motherboard for Buildings”
The Internet of Things (IoT) is infiltrating every corner of the building. Systems like heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC), lighting and access control have already been revolutionized by connectivity. More recently, elevators, windows, and furniture have been given a smart makeover. Now, a Toronto firm wants to go one step further by integrating IoT […]
Microsoft’s Azure Digital Twins Platform Could Disrupt Cloud Computing for the Building IoT
Back in spring this year, Microsoft announced that they intended to invest $5 billion in Internet of Things (IoT) services over the next four years with the goal of “simplifying the journey in IoT.” They made it clear that they wanted any customer, no matter where they’re starting from, to be able to create trusted, […]
Sensors Based on Graphene Devices Incorporated into the Building Fabric
This article was written by Daphne Tomlinson, Independent Senior Research Associate at Memoori. As part of the Building Internet of Things (IoT) trend, sensors are being mounted everywhere – on ceilings, walls, desks or incorporated into lighting fixtures at a rapid rate. In view of their proliferation, a new graphene-based solution in which sensors are […]
Turning Entire Cities into Batteries with Energy Storing Cement
Instead of adding batteries to buildings in order to turn them into virtual power plants, what if we could use the building itself to store electricity? That is the thinking behind research at the University of Lancaster in the UK that has come up with a “smart cement” that is able to cost effectively store […]
Doing More with Building Data: Exploring the Fundamental Driving Forces of the BIoT
“The IoT is steadily transforming the way that facilities managers, building owners and operators can gather and analyze building systems performance data, as well as changing the way building users interact within the built environment,” states our latest report The Internet of Things in Smart Commercial Buildings 2018 to 2022. Cost of sensors is a […]
Predictive Maintenance for Facility Management is Now at a Disruptive Price Point
This article was written by Daphne Tomlinson, Independent Senior Research Associate at Memoori. A wide range of HVAC equipment and service providers are competing for a slice of the IoT enabled business from commercial real estate owners and operators. The proliferation of machine learning and IoT platforms aimed at energy management, remote diagnostics and preventative […]
