A PoC for Smart Buildings
The high degree of automation increases process efficiency and at the same time user-centricity, as elevators are intelligently controlled and waiting times for visitors are significantly reduced. Thanks to essentry's identity verification, only verified visitors are granted access to selected areas, which significantly heightens the building's security. The analytics functions provide insights into the performance and use of smart buildings and open up optimization potential. Customers especially benefit from scalable solutions, as the requirements can be adapted depending on the building and location. The PoC was supported and tested for market readiness by the Center Smart Commercial Building and the renowned RWTH Aachen Campus.
The strategic partnership with essentry shows how a joint and integrated solution can generate great added value for the customer. The innovative solution from both companies focuses on providing a seamless user experience rather than the processual combination of individual technologies.
