Five HOMES first prototypes were unveiled, they demonstrate how to save every possible
drop of energy, by the means of an optimized room by room or area by area management
system, and of high-tech environmental sensors…but also by collaboration and simulation
tools, enabling building management players to design and implement the  most energy
efficient schemes.


Each prototype was presented by the programme partners:

>  the Roombox solution, a decentralised and cross-application electric command and
control architecture, from Schneider Electric;

>  the HVAC (Heating, Ventilation and Air Condition) emissions controller, for more
accurate ventilation management and improved transmission of information, from
CIAT

> the wireless and autonomous sensor, integrating all environmental parameters into a
same device, from Schneider Electric and CEA;

> the eveBIM collaborative software, designed to integrate ideas on energy efficiency
at every stage in the construction and management of a building, from SCTB;

> the ZigBee and carrier current equipment, to make available to the living
environment an integrated group of products to manage electrical load on one hand
and measure consumption on the other, from Schneider Electric and Watteco.
