Trends in Commercial Automation 2020
Technology continues to entwine itself into our lives and has only made our daily routines easier and better. From the first bulb that ever came into existence to the voice automated applications, technology has become as indispensable part of our lives and it is safe to say that it has become the crux of human existence. Recent trends in technology suggest that commercial automation will be the next most sought after aspect in the architecture and design industry. Commercial automation is a technology system usually implemented to control various aspects of a building, such as the lights, temperature, window shades, audio, video, etc. Instead of controlling all of these components individually, automation combines them into one easily managed system. Everything works in unison, which in turn helps one’s business save on daily operations. A business becomes more lucrative and manageable when all your technology and systems work in sync with user friendly control. Imagine operating on a single interface to activate and deactivate the alarm systems, turn lights on, draw curtains, set temperature and turn on video displays. A boardroom or conference which lacks the modern design sensibilities surely can’t meet the efficiency, productivity and elegance of a boardroom integrated with the most up-to-date systems modern technology has to offer. By integrating every function and having an easy control over your space from a single touch screen, commercial automation has become the need of the hour. The productivity at one’s workplace will increase, with all the important rooms at the office governed by smart technology. Conference rooms, boardroom or executive office can all be controlled from a single tablet. The scheduling of meetings in different meeting rooms in a campus becomes easy and in case the meeting room is still unoccupied within, for instance 10 minutes of the scheduled meeting time, the smart room system automatically adds the meeting room to the “Free” list of rooms. There will be no delays when holding meetings and every visitor will appreciate the easy going yet effective approach. Smart technology will set you apart put you a step above in efficiency and the experience of your space. You have the option to only integrate the system in a few areas first and then expand later. Smart Lighting allows the rezoning of the lighting in office areas with software, without the need for rewiring, thus giving tremendous flexibility to the office space design. It is relatively easy to explore possibilities with commercial automation. Commercial automation also leads to energy conservation, by sensing the presence and absence of a person in the room amongst many other benefits. The twin requirements of increasing employee comfort and at the same time reducing energy consumption are easily achieved with automation technology. We can conclude from recent trends in the business that commercial automation will become a necessity at workplaces due to its unmatched benefits and functions.
