Smart building service system pilot environment

The project tests new smart technology solutions in a pilot environment in Otaniemi. The building services being integrated include ventilation, lighting heating and building automation. Multiple sensors are also installed into the spaces and they are used to collect information about various environmental aspects, such as carbon dioxide concentrations and room temperature.

Accelerating digitalization is causing major changes in buildings just like in all other industries. To stay competitive and up to the increasing standards of the end users, the operators in the building and real estate fields of industry must develop smarter solutions. These should improve accessibility, time usage, comfort, well-being of the user and provide experiences.

Achieving this requires collaboration of the various building service systems, Internet of Things solutions, user friendly user interfaces, data analytics and self-learning control solutions. These areas of smart building services are the focus of this project and they are being worked on in close collaboration with various companies and organizations from the industry.

Following companies and organizations are involved in the project: Beckhoff, Caverion, Fidelix, Granlund, Helvar, KNX Finland ry and its affiliates, KT Interior, Mirasys, NCC, Schneider-Electric, Siemens, Swegon, Connected Finland, Soficta and Flexitila.
