Slim stopcontact: Crownstone

17 september, 2015 door Almende

Smart buildings is both, observation and control: “See & Do”. Although this becomes more mainstream, DoBots has been accelerating this research by developing the Crownstone.

The Crownstone is a Bluetooth Low-Energy switching block that can be embedded everywhere in a building. Not only can people use their smartphones to control every wire in the building, but also the building knows where the people are. This means:

An audiotour through a museum adjusted to your preferences
Directing people to the right track on a railway station
An alarm service in a daycare center or hospital
An office that shuts down all devices (except for fridges, etc.) at night

The combination of observation and control allows for services that satisfy both facility managers as well as end-users!

Almende

Almende is a Dutch research company specialized in information and communication technologies.
Central to all our research is the concept of self-organization. We believe that computer systems and technology should support people in performing their professional tasks and organizing their daily lives. This means that ICT should learn to work for and with people, according to their individual wishes and demands.
At the core of all Almende solutions are hybrid agent networks: humans and computers working together. We look towards agent technology to develop smart software that truly supports people in organizing their own lives.
