Lighting controls and color rendition Building controls with deep learning Healthy buildings
3
Three examples: healthy, efficient, productive
Nursing home studies showed that
controllable lighting reduces
agitation 41% and reduces
nighttime sleep disturbances 50%.
Achieved 50% savings in a real-
world field trial of data-driven
control methodologies combined
with deep learning.
Comfortable buildings increase
occupant productivity by 5.7% and
reduce absenteeism 37%.

Thinking about healthy… a framework
• Integrate occupants’ productivity and wellbeing with energy efficiency measures
• Quantify potential financial benefits of technology
• Develop a “program-in-a-box” to help facility managers make informed decisions about building
retrofits and operation
