Team 4 Presentation Reflection

The topics we covered were automation and AI technology in construction, HVAC sensors, sensor implementation in BIM, and facial recognition sensors.

As a team, we learned how facial recognition works, and how it can be used to increase security in the wake of horrific mass shootings. We also learned that there are a multitude of different sensors that can be implemented within a building, especially for HVAC, to improve overall air quality. There are also many ways we can further improve security within a building without turning the building itself into a jail-like structure.

The main conclusion we can draw from these presentations is that there are very interesting and innovative ways that sensors can impact the use of a building during its design, construction, and day to day life.

For the class presentation we are choosing facial recognition.
