Electricity monitoring with VIKI

Lately, a lot of emphasis is placed on the energy performance of the houses, knowing that by March 2020, Romania has to transpose into the national legislation Directive 2018/844 / EU on the energy performance of buildings. This will impose on the builders and owners of buildings important rules, such as the obligation to install equipment for electric vehicles charging and systems for automation and control of energy consumption.

Energy efficiency measures can reduce the energy consumption of a building by up to 40%. The thermal energy for heating and hot water represents about 70% of the consumption of a residential building. Due to the proper thermal insulation and the implementation of efficient heating or energy monitoring solutions, the energy consumption can be reduced by half.

Technologies for user identification in VIKI

The house of the future is the house where technology blends harmoniously with your lifestyle, ensuring a perfect balance between comfort and relaxation. Intended for the whole family, VIKI technology is more than home automation.

aer-conditionat-viki

We want to provide users with a positive experience when they come into contact with the VIKI application, and its ease of use, intuitive elements and efficiency are the reasons why the VIKI team is in a process of continuous development and improvement of the application.

Thus, the Climate mode within the VIKI client application has several new changes, made in order to facilitate the tracking of the heating / cooling equipment found in the VIKI smart home.
The central heating unit, the radiators, the air conditioning, the mixing pumps and the underfloor heating circuits are active elements of the air conditioning system in your home. In order to make it easier to see how they “work”, we have created, activated and animated graphic symbols related to them, so that with a single glance you can see how the air conditioning works.

VIKI befriends KNX

viki knx

VIKI the smart home takes a step towards interfacing with the KNX solution. In December we have researched KNX technology and tested the possibility of integrating the VIKI intelligence layer with the connection offered by the KNX solution.

KNX is a system that retains its value

KNX is the only system that complies with the requirements of the European (EN50090) and International (ISO / IEC 14543) standards for Home Automation. This compliance certifies the value of KNX technology and it is the quality proof for homeowners.

KNX is an open system

KNX provides the freedom to choose the products that are to be integrated in your home: over 200 manufacturers offer you a variety of KNX products, certified and compatible, according to the latest standards in the technical field, having the complete freedom to choose. So, with KNX you build today for tomorrow.

KNX technology is a worldwide standard for all home automation applications, from lighting and window blinds control, to various security systems, heating, ventilation, air conditioning, alarm monitoring, sanitation control, energy management, measuring, and also devices for home, audio and many more.

KNX technology can be used not only in new buildings, but also in existing ones and has been on the market for over 23 years, including predecessors, EIB, EHS and BatiBUS.
The systems designed according to the KNX standard can be applied from the level of an apartment to huge installations such as the new terminals of airports in the world, like Beijing, built for the 2008 Olympics, or terminal 5 at London’s Heathrow airport.

This leads to a great flexibility and the possibility to model many intelligent functions even for residential, multi or single-family buildings.
The VIKI team will return in the next period with details about the results of the tests performed in this research.

How do you prepare for a peaceful winter? Prepare the warm clothes in the closet, make sure the heating system will work, change the car tires… but the house? How do you prepare the house for shorter and colder days? With VIKI, you don’t have to worry.

The VIKI intelligence will naturally adapt to the changes that come with the cold months and will continue to provide that warm atmosphere, the safety and comfort that define the feeling of “home”. Yes, we will enjoy less natural light, and falling temperatures can cause us problems. We will spend more time in the house, with the family.

Therefore, it is important to make sure that your home is well lit and heated at all times. With VIKI’s intelligent solutions, you can create some preset scenarios that will help to establish a suitable environment for any occasion. You can create a bright workspace in the kitchen when you cook, choosing “Cooking” mode. VIKI will turn on your favorite music, reduce the heat in the kitchen, which will be offset by the one in the oven, and keep the lights on.
