Smart sensors are the crucial element of today’s building automation capabilities as they provide the data required for optimizing building operations, energy savings and business intelligence. A critical sensing breakthrough is capturing valuable data on how and where occupants use a building. Having nearly 30 million consumer electronic devices installed with PointGrab’s Human-Machine Interface (HMI) software, the company has a proven ability to identify and deliver effective solutions on a large scale. Founded by pioneers of ultra-accurate computer vision technologies PointGrab applies its innovative artificial intelligence (deep learning) technology to the building automation ecosystem where real-time occupants’ analytics is lacking. With the advent of its CogniPoint edge-analytics sensing solution PointGrab is fulfilling its mission in making truly intelligent buildings by providing the invaluable data of how and where occupants use the buildings.
