Coimbatore, Feb 2019: SIERRA has integrated its eFACiLiTY® software with Smart IOT (Internet of Things) Buttons for One-touch Facility Management. The Smart IoT Buttons are installed at SIERRA's eFACiLiTY® Building, for one-touch recording of call requests, reporting problems, raising complaints, raise work orders etc. These switches are also integrated with the Building Automation System (BMS/BAS) for controlling lights, air conditioners, motors, sprinklers and various other devices in the facility.
INTERNET OF THINGS - IoT, is a system of interconnected computing devices, mechanical and digital machines, that are provided with unique identifiers (UIDs) having the ability to transfer data over a network without requiring human or computer interaction. IoT consists of web-enabled devices that collect, send and act on data they acquire from their surrounding environments using embedded sensors, processors and communication hardware. The main purpose of IoT devices is to generate real-time data, that we can then analyse and use to create desired business outcomes. The IoT device is connected to the IP Network or to Ethernet(wired/wireless) and communicates through the local server. They communicate data to devices that are able to process the data and trigger/facilitate actions.
SMART BUTTON - IoT Button, is a programmable button. This simple Wi-Fi or Bluetooth device is easy to configure and designed for developers to integrate without Web Services without writing device-specific code. We can code the button's logic in the cloud to configure button clicks to count or track items, call or alert someone, start or stop something, order services, or even provide feedback. Buttons have three type of actions: single-click, double-click and press-and-hold. Each type of action can be set to perform a different action, and can also perform multiple actions. IoT buttons single-click, double-click, or long-press are coded and based on the software function, they are used to connect to IoT-powered connected things. Water leak sensors notify, if there is a leak or flooding in any area. The sensor easily connects to the hub and will notify if moisture or water is leaking nearby and stops the motor.
