  • Augmented reality-based wiring, commissioning and monitoring of controllers
    Patent number: 11064009
    Abstract: A system for augmentation of reality-based components and actions related to controllers. Actions may incorporate augmented reality-based wiring, commissioning and monitoring. An augmented reality based application may run in a smart glass, head mounted display (HMD) or in a smart phone, which can augment, for example, a building management system controller and help in wiring, monitoring and commissioning of the controller.

  • Methods and devices for communicating over a building management system network
    Patent number: 10187222
    Abstract: A method of communication between devices of a building management system (1) over a token ring network, comprising the steps of: a first device receiving (101) the token (2) for the token ring network; the first device, in response to receiving the token (2), broadcasting (105) a request message over the network; a second device, in response to receiving the request message over the network, sending a command message to a receiving device over the network; and the first device passing (107) the token (2) for the token ring network to a subsequent device on the network.

  • BUILDING SPACE CONTROL
    Publication number: 20180364812
    Abstract: Methods, devices, and systems for building space control are described herein. One device includes a memory, and a processor configured to execute executable instructions stored in the memory to receive a recording of a gesture interaction with a virtual control element associated with a setting of a space in a building, analyze the recorded gesture for gesture characteristics, and modify the setting of the space based on the virtual control element and the gesture characteristics.
