Sensor technology is not new to building automation. Millions of office buildings around the world today are equipped with sensor-based systems designed to conserve energy, performing simple tasks such as automatically turning the lights on and off when someone enters or leaves a room. These simple tasks are enabled via an array of passive infrared sensors (PIRs), simple photocells, and/or CO2 sensors to ensure robust coverage throughout the office building. Compared to traditional Machine Learning, the superior performance of Deep Learning enables us to achieve new levels of sensing and analytical intelligence with the most cost effective, energy efficient embedded processors.
