Continue to read for an in
depth and detailed insight into Automation
Systems and how it can simplify your life and
functioning.
What is Automation?
Put simply, Automation means
the computerisation of controls and systems that
minimises the use of human intervention.
Uses of Automation
Automation systems are
system integrators that control and
monitor all the functions, systems and
equipments in offices, commercial buildings,
homes, industry, other establishments such as
hospitals, hotels, educational institutes etc.
The Automation system can be
accessed by web control from any
location, making the system dynamic and easy to
operate.
Features of Automation
With Automation, you can
enhance the safety and security of
a building, as well as integrate several systems
to function as one unit, thereby reducing the
amount of time and effort spent on managing the
several components that ensure the building
functions optimally.
Building Automation
The
integration of all systems of a building such as
HVAC, security, fire, or
lighting systems that can be controlled and
monitored from a central point is called a
Building Automation
System (BAS).
The
benefits of Building Automation System include:
energy savings, occupant comfort, increased
efficiency, reduced maintenance costs, and
enhanced safety and security.
Intelligent detection
of threats to a building is crucial to ensure
the long term efficiency and life of the
building.
Building Automation Features
Safety
When it comes to building
safety, a BAS can trigger an alarm to alert the
facilities manager, who can immediately tap in
remotely and see what’s going on.
The BAS can be programmed to
notify the concerned personnel through a
computer, pager/mobile phone or audible alarm.
Buildings are made safe by
the inclusion of Fire alarms, Smoke
alarm systems, Heat detectors, Smoke
detectors and LPG leak detectors.
Security
World class security systems
by Vasu Infosec help secure your installation
from breach and security lapses.
Security of a building is
enhanced with the inclusion of an Access
Control system, whereby access to the
building is restricted to authorised personnel
only, who carry a card embedded with a unique
code to identify them and allow access.
Access control can also be
achieved with the adoption of Biometric
security systems. Biometrics uses finger
recognition, fingerprint authentication, hand
and palm print recognition, hand or finger
geometry, face recognition, iris or retinal
pattern, voice recognition, vein pattern,
handwriting, for biometric identification and
verification.
The periphery of the building
is guarded at all times with an effective
Intrusion Alarm system. The Intrusion Alarm
system notifies the security guards and auto
dials preset phone numbers, as well as sends
an SMS and e-mail to pre-fed numbers.
CCTV,
IP cameras etc enable you to set up a system of
surveillance that can be monitored and
controlled from a remote location through a
broadband/LAN network.
The most significant
surveillance system of recent times is the
DVR or Digital Video Recorder
since it enables live video monitoring and
recording directly into the hard disk of the
computer. The DVR has many advanced
features and can be viewed remotely over a
broadband Internet connection from a PC.
Time and Attendance System
An Access control system can
also be linked with a Time and Attendance
system to monitor the activities of the
staff on site, simplifying the manually
intensive and laborious activity. Time and
Attendance softwares can also be configured
to automatically produce printed or emailed
reports on a weekly and monthly basis.
Energy Conservation
Conservation of energy can be
achieved by automating lights, AC controls
and other utilities.
Lighting
is an automated service that can be turned on
and off with a building automation system based
on time of day. Operating times can be set by
individual tenants within the building.
Temperature sensors and AC controls
installed in rooms automatically detect the rise
or fall in temperature as required maintaining
equilibrium.
Networking these systems can lead to a dramatic
decrease in energy consumption, greatly reducing
overall cost.
Home
Automation
A Home Automation
system means a home where essential functions
are automated or controlled by remote from a
central device. From turning the air
conditioning off at the stipulated hour, to
arming the security system when the owner is
away, a Home Automation system takes care of
apartment security and safety and
adds an element of luxury, convenience and
fret-free existence to your lifestyle.
The home automation
system connects all the systems and devices with
a central controller that can be controlled from
anywhere. This central control panel (HAP) can
be accessed and controlled through interfaces
like keypad, wired or wireless touch-screens
(with/without video), universal remotes, mobile
devices such as a cell phone or PDA, any PC, at
home, in the office, or on the road.
An
automated home is an intelligent home and
an interactive home that takes care of
mundane activities, leaving you with enough time
to indulge in other activities.
Home Automation Features
Safety
Homes are made safer by the
inclusion of alarm systems that detect threats.
Fire alarm systems, smoke alarm
systems, smoke detectors, heat
detectors and LPG leak detectors
sound an alarm to alert the security staff in
the building and auto dial preset phone
numbers, as well as sends an SMS and e-mail to
pre-fed numbers in the event of a breach. Supply
from the LPG Gas Bank is shut off automatically
when a leak is detected.
Security
In an effective Home
Automation system you can equip your entry
point (main door) with a Video Door Phone,
to enable you to view the visitor before you
open the latch. The door can also be equipped
with a Digital Door Lock that can be
operated from any room in the house.
To add to your convenience
(especially when you want to get into your home
and your arms are laden with grocery bags), your
door will be accessible without keys. The
Keyless Entry feature will mean that you
won’t fumble for your keys again, nor worry
yourself even if you forgot them inside the
house!
Your home is also guarded by
an effective Intrusion Alarm system. The
Intrusion Alarm system notifies the security
guards and auto dials preset phone
numbers, as well as sends an SMS and e-mail to
pre-fed numbers.
If the apartment complex you
live in is also powered by Automation, you can
even keep an eye on your children playing in the
park or swimming in the pool through the central
device, the HAP. Cameras installed in
public areas ensure that you can watch your
loved ones even from your 22nd storey
apartment.
Energy Conservation
Environmental control becomes
an easy task with a home automation system, as
motion sensors that detect presence to turn on
lights and water are installed in bathrooms.
You can save on energy consumption by automating
your lights, cooling or heating systems.
Luxurious enhancements: Mood
Lighting
Gone are the days when a 100
watt bulb illuminated each room in the house. In
the modern day, lighting is not about merely
illuminating a room. Lighting has an incredible
influence on the mood of a room. With
appropriate lighting, you can achieve dramatic
effects, create a romantic atmosphere or set up
a home office that is extremely professional.
Mood Lighting, a part of the
Home Automation System by Vasu Infosec is the
innovative medium which allows you to control
your own light scenarios. Depending upon the
time of the day, morning, afternoon, evening,
and night, you can increase or decrease the
intensity of light in the room. You can also
control the lighting to suit your mood.
Mood Lighting can control the
amount of electricity that reaches the light,
reducing your electricity bills. Mood Lighting
is therefore not just a luxury, it is your key
to an efficient and cost effective lighting
system.
Entertainment and Information
Through the HAP (Home
Automation Panel) you can access movies and
music on demand! The panel beholds a world of
knowledge that you can access with the touch of
a button; Infotainment, Games and a virtual
library of E - Books. You can get information
about Hotels, sightseeing, restaurants and
shopping as well as geographical and cultural
data of destinations. Gain access to detailed
interactive city maps. HAP also gives access to
e-mailing, e-shopping, telephony etc through
your laptop or desktop.
RFID
Radio Frequency
Identification (RFID)
is a method of remotely storing and retrieving
data using devices called RFID tags. An
RFID tag is a small object that can be attached
to or incorporated into a product. RFID uses
radio frequency waves to transfer data between a
reader/scanner and a movable item to identify,
track or locate it.
RFID has the ability to track
moving objects and confers business benefits at
low costs. Retail ports, industries, warehouses
, parking lots, toll roads, travel/car fleet
units, banks, airports, judiciary and government
are a few of the significant areas that benefit
from RFID technology.
