Light + Building: euromicron’s subsidiary MICROSENS presents IP-based Smart Office concept

MICROSENS’ decentralized Smart Office concept brings network intelligence to the application’s direct vicinity and so creates an unprecedented level of performance and security. Based completely on IP, the concept uses standard IT cabling infrastructure that exists in every office building and so offers an open, standards-compliant solution. The sensors, actuators and system management communicate via secure, encrypted IP network protocols. The Smart Office Concept uses the existing IP network with Power over Ethernet, both for controlling the devices and for supplying them with power. As a result, even lighting with energy-efficient LEDs can be fully integrated in the all-round concept. The Smart Office concept can be scaled and expanded as desired. Existing rooms can be integrated gradually and depending on needs. That enables gentle migration to state-of-the-art building management.

Apps – small software components such as are familiar from the smartphone – replace the need for time-consuming, complex programing in the Smart Office. Users can tailor their workplace to their individual requirements. The building technology is enabled on a user-specific basis and tracked in a fully automated manner, which thus offers completely new possibilities as regards, security, convenience and cost-effectiveness.
