Qualcomm Collaborates with Current to Gain Further Efficiencies for Smart Campus
Current’s sensing technology to help optimize office space, enhance employee comfort
BOSTON — The Qualcomm Smart Campus in San Diego is adding smart digital sensing technology from Current, powered by GE. GE and Qualcomm Intelligent Solutions Inc., a subsidiary of Qualcomm Technologies Inc., announced that Current’s sensors, microservices, and intelligent LED infrastructure will help drive more energy efficiency and operational savings for Qualcomm’s Smart Campus, supporting the company’s intelligent environments showcase for visiting customers.
As part of the deployment, Current’s sensors will detect and analyze building occupancy levels to help control lighting and HVAC in real-time, with the goal of driving down energy costs. Air quality sensors for temperature, humidity, and CO2 will work in concert with ventilation systems to ensure optimal temperature and environmental conditions based on building occupancy, to enhance the comfort and productivity of occupants. In order to support Qualcomm Intelligent Solutions’ continued efforts to gain more intelligence and further increase efficiencies in its Smart Campus, edge intelligence gateways powered by Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ processors will support the collection of critical data, while normalizing and filtering for various sensors in real-time. These edge intelligence gateways will also promote seamless communications between various enterprise assets such as lighting, water, energy, and HVAC.
