New Smart Building Topic Guide

BSRIA releases its topic guides as an introduction to important technology topics and trends. The new guide covers everything from trends and recent developments in smart technology to the Internet of Things (IoT) and smart products. It also discusses standard open protocols for smart buildings. Jeremy Towler, BSRIA’s senior manager of Energy and Smart Technologies wrote the guide.

In the guide’s release announcement, Towler said:

“With so many new products incorporating sophisticated hard and software appearing in the market and with the majority of people now toting a smartphone, it is not surprising that IoT is forecast to grow at a phenomenal pace. It promises to deliver a plethora of new applications and benefits. This topic guide lays out some of the most important developments in smart technology and is designed to help the reader navigate this rapidly evolving area.”

Smart building technology companies, professionals, and those interested in the industry will likely find this new smart technology guide helpful in looking at new trends in the industry and in looking towards the future.
