Chipkin Automation Systems And Feedback Solutions Sign A Joint Venture Agreement For Integration Of People Counting And Building Automation Systems
Chipkin Automation Systems and Feedback Solutions have entered into a joint-venture agreement to integrate a People Counting Solution with a Building Automation and Control Systems.
People counting is gaining ground as a key tool towards understanding the flow of people into a building and is becoming a reliable tool to understanding occupancy. Integration of people counting data with a Building Automation System to control, heating, cooling and ventilation in a building is helping property managers reap huge savings on their Energy Consumption. The joint venture will marry two diverse technologies enabling a seamless integration between the two systems. Providing accurate count or occupancy data to a BAS system using BACnet, Modbus, JSON, SNMP and many other protocols helps any building automation provider to easily utilize the data to trigger controls.
CAS has a demonstrated track record of providing great integration interfaces. Mr. Peter Chipkin, president of CAS said “We are excited to enter into a joint venture with Feedback Solutions. We can leverage the skills Feedback Solutions have with people counting and they can leverage our skills at providing remote monitoring, control and integration solutions.”
