Learn from energy use patterns andrecommend ways to improve energymanagement.

Reduce CO2 emissions, conserveelectricity and save money by onlyusing building systems when needed.

#1 - Energy Use

#2 - Security and Safety

Use video and image analytics at access controlpoints to improve tenant safety. Quickly identifywho should be admitted to a building or spotunusual behavior and prevent security threats.

#4 - Personalization

Directly interact with buildingsystems through voice commands.

Get directions to a meeting room,adjust the temperature in youroffice, or find out what’s beingserved in the cafeteria.

#6 - Building Maintenance

Run diagnostics on sensor data frombuilding systems through a naturallanguage interface.

Through voice commands, send alerts tomaintenance so you can intervene beforesystems go down or supplies run out.

Share data across a portfolioof buildings, which can

proactively learn from andadopt the best practices of

other buildings in theirecosystem.

#10 - Inter-BuildingCommunication

Data from buildings, combined with traffic,weather and utility data, can be used to learnfrom and predict patterns in cities, such as trafficjams or energy shortages.

Cognitive IoT has the potential to transform howwe think about buildings, cities -- and beyond.

It takes an ecosystem.
