PUBLICIDADE Smart Building Case Study
Laying the Groundwork for IoT Innovation
Cisco is working to help local and global organizations improve busi- ness outcomes using the Internet of Things (IoT). One of many focus areas is smart building. In a 2015 proof of concept, the company brought together an assortment of solution providers to create “open- Berlin,“ an open innovation platform designed to speed up prototyping and reduce development time from years to weeks.
In just four months the team designed a fog computing platform to auto- mate a three-story Cisco building in Berlin. The building management system (BMS) project integrates industrial Internet of Things (IoT) tech- nologies to collect and analyze data from thousands of sensors.
The project’s solutions delivered greater than 30 percent CapEx sav- ings versus traditional intelligent BMS systems.
An energy-usage comparison of two 90-day periods – one before and one after the project – demonstrated a greater than 60 percent sav- ings compared to Cisco’s prior BMS.
Project Overview The development team followed a four-step process, scaling the solu- tion to include thousands of devices. Devices included heating, ven- tilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, sensors, pumps, video capture and facial recognition system, physical security, and more.
The resulting solution provides complete visibility over resource uti- lization (space, energy, water) and provides occupants seamless mobility across offi ce space. The site is now an IoT showcase, col- lecting and analyzing data from more than 10,000 sensors monitoring room temperature, lighting, power consumption, and other factors.
Combining IoT with DevOps
The smart building project uses a generic openBerlin platform incorpo- rating elements of the Intel®
IoT Platform to combine IoT technologies
with development and operations (DevOps) – see Figure 1. Key to gen- erating useful insights, the platform analyzes data and displays results on a dashboard in real time.
openBerlin is based on Architecture Combining IoT with DevOps Data Points, Variety & Velocity, Security, Resiliency, Latency
