Detailed description

Energy Efficiency

The usage of automated functions already save energy in every installation. Especially the usage of KNX has a lot of potential for further energy savings, which can contribute to a better environmental footprint. Be extending KNX to more functions and applications, energy savings of up to 60% can be realised. Thanks to the flexibility of KNX, these functions can easily be implemented in this installation

Innovation

Smart homes and buildings are always an upgrade in comparison to a conventional installation. Not only automated functions and a higher level of comfort contribute to a higher living standard, but also the possibility to be ready for coming innovations. Thanks to the usage of KNX, the door has been opened to integrate new innovative solutions, using the worldwide STANDARD for home and building control.

Ease of Use

By integrating KNX, we automatically experience a higher energy efficiency and comfort. Furthermore, by the possibility to use further devices, in order to make the usage of the project easier, we can look at further opportunity to even make the whole installation easier in usage.

Customer's description

Mit Fokus auf die zukünftige Nutzung des Futuriums wurde eine innovative Visualisierung konzeptionell und technische entwickelt, die eine intuitive und benutzerfreundliche Steuerung der bestehenden Lichttechnik ermöglicht. Die große Herausforderung bei der Entwicklung und Gestaltung lag in der enormen Anzahl an Leuchten, an der Vielzahl an Aktoren und deren Parametern sowie an den unterschiedlichen Beleuchtungstypen. Zudem sind die Ausstellungsflächen im Obergeschoss elektrotechnisch segmentiert. Das heißt, dass der Deckenspiegel auf mehrere Unterverteilungen und somit teilweise auf mehrere KNX-Linien verteilt ist. Alle diese baulich-technischen Faktoren mussten in eine graphisch erfassbare Form gebracht werden und dabei möglichst einfach zu steuern sein. Für die Entwicklung der Visualisierung wurden alle Maßnahmen ergriffen, um auf Basis der baulichen Geräte und Infrastruktur, die beste Leistung und Nutzerfreundlichkeit zu erschaffen.
