At Light + Building 2016, the German trade fair for lighting and building services technology, Bosch was presenting intelligently connected products for commercial buildings and homes. Bosch says it’s focusing on connectivity via the internet of things.
Intelligently connected building security systems discreetly ensure smooth processes – and minimise operating and personnel costs, the firm says. Bosch presented its building management system BIS (building integration system), which combines all the security systems of a building on one platform: video, fire alarms and evacuation systems, intruder alarms, and access control. Building technology used to open and close barriers, gates, and doors, for example, can also be controlled with BIS. Bosch is introducing the option of connecting the MAP 5000 (modular alarm platform) intrusion alarm with the MATRIX access control system. Bosch was also showing its new combined public address and voice evacuation system PAVIRO, pictured. It facilitates the evacuation of a building.
