Heating, cooling, ventilation, conditioning and lighting
currently account for approximately 60% of the energy consumption
within buildings [4]. The conditioning of these areas,
however, are not controlled optimally. Rooms that are
empty or only partially occupied are conditioned assuming
maximum occupancy rather than actual occupancy. In order
to optimize conditioning, room usage must be considered. In
this demonstration, we show the interplay between a wireless
camera sensor network, which is used for detection and
tracking of people entering/exiting rooms, and building energy
management infrastructure, which controls the heating,
cooling, ventilation and lighting for a room/area.
