INTERNET OF THINGS -AN ANALYSIS OF SMART BUILDINGSGOPALAKRISHNAN KRISHNANLINKEDIN: HTTP://WWW.LINKEDIN.COM/IN/GOPALAKRISHNANPKWEBSITE: HTTP://GOPALAKRISHNANPK.NETFEB 17, 2017
WHAT IS COVERED• “Smart” Buildings Overview• Scope of Analysis• Analysis of existing Smart Buildings’
solutions• Smart Apartments Overview• Smart Apartments Needs & Challenges•Conclusion
OVERVIEW•What is a Smart Building?• Any building that leverages
data collected from distributed sensors to improve optimization parameters
•What Optimization Parameters?• Utilities (Energy/Electricity,
Water, Gas) consumption reduction, HVAC optimization• Safety & Security
SMART BUILDINGS CLASSIFICATION• Commercial buildings• Offices• Malls and Shopping Complexes• Hotels, Restaurants, Hospitals• Schools, Community Halls/
Libraries• Industrial facilities
• Residential Buildings• Apartment Complexes• Gated communities, villas• Individual residential units
SCOPE•What is part of this analysis• An analysis of IoT solutions for commercial buildings• Potential for IoT adoption in residential buildings
SMART BUILDINGS’ SOLUTION ECOSYSTEM
• Solutions predominantly aimed at enterprises (energy guzzlers in general!)• High focus areas for the likes of
IBM, Cisco, Siemens, Hitachi, Honeywell, Johnson Controls etc
ANALYSIS OF EXISTING SMART BUILDINGS’ SOLUTIONS
• Predominant focus is on energy/electricity reduction• Multiple solutions, most of them
incompatible (probably) with each other• Customers cannot employ a mix and match
approach for driving cost downwards• Solution providers partner with Facility Service
Providers such as CBRE, ISS World - yet another service provider to work with for an enterprise
• What’s missing?• Water consumption monitoring, and
minimization• Intelligent waste management system

SMART BUILDINGS’ SOLUTION OFFERINGSCompany Solution
IBM Smarter Planet campaign, Watson AI
GE PredixSAP Hana
Siemens Desigo, APOGEECisco Digital Ceiling
Hitachi Lumada
HoneywellVYKON, Enterprise
Buildings Integrator, WEBs building automation
Johnson Controls Allying with Cisco and IBM
CONCLUSION• Existing Smart Buildings’ IoT
solutions are aimed at commercial buildings• Predominant focus is on energy
consumption optimization• Very little focus on parameters other
than energy (Eg. Waste, Water)• Residential buildings are not focus
areas at present
SMART RESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS
OVERVIEW• Existing smart building solutions
cater predominantly to commercial buildings• Smart residential buildings have
different optimization requirements
• Home automation solutions address individual residential units, but not apartments• Current solutions are focused on
electricity, lighting, heating, and enhanced user interaction
• Apartment complexes face different problems, but no integrated solution aimed purely at making apartments smarter
Home Automation
Smart Apartments
WHY SMART APARTMENTS?• Apartment Management
Committee typically constituted by working professionals• Limited ability to address issues in real-time
• Key issues surrounding security, and essential consumables (water, sewage) need real-time attention•Multiple vendors for Security,
House Keeping, Water, Sewage Treatment Plant etc- need for oversight
SMART APARTMENTS’ NEEDS• Focus on Operational efficiency• Areas of focus
• Sewage Treatment plant• Water consumption - usually the highest
consumable component in monthly maintenance• Security in/of common areas and passages-
especially safety of children• Support staff monitoring- maids, drivers, car
cleaners, other vendors• Common Area lighting• Backup DG- diesel consumption, periodic
maintenance• Lift maintenance• Other amenities management
SMART APARTMENTS- CHALLENGES•Management structure • Not controlled by single individual or family• Usually owners association managed- decision making takes time
• Tight budgets- need for lower cost solutions• Enterprise grade solutions may not suit budget
SMART APARTMENT BUILDINGS- CONCLUSION• Different requirements than Individual residential units AND
commercial buildings• Key Requirements and Focus Areas
• Real-time issue detection, and follow-up• Technology enabled vendor oversight, and management control• Non invasive security and access control• Predictive maintenance
• Additional Requirements• Common Area Lighting and Energy efficiency improvement• Smart Water metering• Sewage treatment quality measurement• Air quality improvement• Smart vehicle ingress/egress
