A heating, ventilation, or air conditioning (HVAC) system for one or more building zones includes airside HVAC equipment operable to provide clean air to the one or more building zones and a controller. The controller is configured to obtain a dynamic temperature model and a dynamic infectious quanta model for the one or more building zones, determine an infection probability, and generate control decisions for the airside HVAC equipment using the dynamic temperature model, the dynamic infectious quanta model, and the infection probability.

A method for managing air quality may include, at one or more processors, receiving sensor data comprising a plurality of air quality parameters for an environment, wherein the sensor data is generated by one or more environment quality monitoring devices located in the environment, predicting an adverse air quality event based on the sensor data, and automatically controlling one or more devices to mitigate the adverse air quality event. An environment quality monitoring device may include a housing, a plurality of sensors in the housing and configured to generate sensor data comprising a plurality of environment quality parameters, a network communication device configured to communicate the sensor data over a network, and an alert configured to indicate an environment quality score of the ambient environment, where the environment quality score is based on at least a portion of the sensor data.

A system and approach for verifying and validating a room condition and its behavior in a critical environment. The system and approach may be a room controller built on top of a Niagara™ framework or launched from a Niagara workbench, and leverages extensible of Niagara. The system and approach may be web-based and used to test and verify the room condition per preset conditions. The system may have steps or tabs. They may incorporate screens for a create/open task, select test zone, read flow, hood/booster, T-stat set-up or temperature lever set-up, visual checks, and a report. One may create a new task and edit any existing task on the controller. One may move from task to task in either direction or go directly to the report of a completed task.

Examples disclosed herein relate to an energy device including a memory, one or more processors, a transceiver, a display, and a dashboard. The memory includes one or more energy modules. The one or more processors are configured to communicate via the transceiver with one or more energy devices. The display is configured to display a dashboard of energy options based on one or more signals received from the one or more processors.

Method and environment controller using a neural network for bypassing a legacy environment control software module. The environment controller receives at least one environmental characteristic value and determines a plurality of input variables. At least one of the plurality of input variables is based on one among the at least one environmental characteristic value. The environment controller transmits the plurality of input variables to an inference server executing a neural network inference engine. The environment controller receives at least one inferred output variable from the inference server. The environment controller uses the at least one inferred output variable received from the inference server in place of at least one output variable calculated by the legacy environment control software module based on the plurality of input variables. The environment controller may prevent the execution of the legacy software module or overwrite the output variable(s) calculated by the legacy software module.

A method, device and system to facilitate centralized control and monitoring of remote network-enabled bathing unit systems owned and operated by different customers are described. A Graphical User Interface (GUI) is provided for presenting on a computing device a listing of bathing unit systems owned and operated by different customers. The GUI is also configured for displaying operational status indicators associated with at least some of the bathing unit systems presented in the listing of bathing unit systems. Data conveying updated operational status information pertaining to one or more of the bathing unit systems in the listing of bathing unit systems is received over a communication network and, in response, the GUI is dynamically adapted to display updated operational status indicators. User operable inputs may also be provided by the GUI to allow a user to add a new entry to the listing of bathing unit systems. In some implementations, the GUI may be configured to present information conveying one or more replacement parts available for purchase for the bathing unit systems in the displayed listing.

Modern large buildings and public places are equipped with a plurality of elevators, exits and points of interest for fluent movement. The passenger flows in a building or public place can be traced and modelled by using statistics and information regarding current state of the modelled building or public place. The information derived from this model can be used for controlling elevators, escalators and similar in the building more efficiently. The same information may be used also for guiding passengers in the building or public place to use other transportation means so that the duration high traffic situation can be reduced or sometimes completely avoided.

Methods and systems are described for controlling parameters in a building. According to at least one embodiment, a method for controlling parameters in a building includes using a first sensor type to determine whether the building is occupied and using a second sensor type to determine how reliable the first sensor type determines occupancy.

Operating HVAC systems using occupancy sensing systems is described herein. One device includes instructions to receive a mapping describing relationships between a space of a plurality of spaces of a building, a plurality of fixtures of an occupancy sensing system installed in the space, and an upstream HVAC device associated with the building, wherein the upstream HVAC device serves a zone including the space, receive occupancy data determined by the fixture over a time period, filter the occupancy data to determine occupancy information associated with the fixture over the time period, determine an occupancy model associated with the space based on the occupancy information associated with the fixtures, and modify an operation of the upstream HVAC device based on the mapping and the occupancy model.

A modular door and frame that can be manufactured and supplied to end users with various combinations of intelligent features. The intelligent features allow functions to be performed by the door and/or frame. Also, conditions or events to be detected and monitored at the intelligent door and/or remote locations. Data relating to the various functions, events, or conditions can be communicated across a network that is communicatively coupled to the door.
