The Expanding Role of Sensors in “Smart” HVAC Systems . https://www.electronicdesign.com/industrial-automation/article/21806809/the-expanding-role-of-sensors-in-smart-hvac-systems. In this article, Manz (2018) discusses the growing function of sensors in “smart” HVAC systems. Sensors are crucial elements in most industrial systems and will be vital in assisting buildings save substantial amount of energy. Due to the acknowledgement of the need for attaining energy efficiency and improvement of technology needed to produce it, there is a current emphasis on connecting sensors to systems to create “intelligent” buildings. The goal of “intelligent” buildings is to facilitate predictive maintenance and create a more comfortable environment for occupants in addition to cutting down energy use. With the advancement of technology, analogue sensors are being replaced by digital sensors due to the many benefits brought about by improved functions. The author also m
