Smart building control 4.0

- How artificial intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT) are changing the way buildings are controlled

- Opportunities for proactive management, e.g. through automatic adjustments to climate, lighting and security

- Potential for increasing energy efficiency and user comfort

Smart buildings as the future of building technology

- Overview of central key technologies: sensor technology, renewable energies, automated systems and building information modelling (BIM)

- Opportunities for more sustainable construction, but also challenges in terms of integration and data protection

- The role of smart buildings in the context of ESG and digital infrastructure

The podcast makes it clear that smart buildings are not just a technological advance, but also a strategic one - with implications for planning, construction, operation and use.
