====== Group 4 - GreenInn - Smart Hotel Concept ====== ^ Full name ^ Student number ^ | Anastasiia Grishina | 0528718 | | Jose Mauricio Perdomo Zelaya | 0528912 | | Florian Akos Szabo | 0528983 | | Ijlal Ahmed Niazi | 0528886 | \\ ====== Team ====== {{:homeautomation2018:hotel:team_.jpg?800|}} \\ ====== Motivation ====== Hotels consume large amounts of energy which is often wasted, since the facilities are not tuned to the mode of their use. Guests are away from their rooms more than 50% of the time, frequently leaving utilities running in their absence. Attracting guests by the green image and showing them technologies are there and smart home is feasible. Reducing energy consumption with high users engagement \\ ====== Project ideas ====== Some features of hotel automation are listed here. ==== Short-term implementation ==== Implementation of ideas with short-term result comprise concepts which currently exist. **If you cannot measure it, you cannot control it** ^ High granularity measurements ^ Effect ^ | Food waste | Optimize resources supply | | Outdoor light brightness | Shutter control to save lighting energy | | Temperature & humidity | Effective climate control with air conditioning \\ Heating \\ Ventilation power | | Energy used by a room | Incentivize users to use energy eficiently \\ Calculate the room price for check-out \\ Calculate bonuses for guests and translate them into free bar drinks or similar benefits \\ Translate energy used into CO2 emissions for green audit | | Electrical network load | Advize users to charge their devices at specific times to avoid peak loads | | Water use | Calculate the room price for check-out | ^ Automation ^ Effect ^ | Appliances power control: activate the outlets with guests' phones | Provide guests with an easy way of managing their power consumption of pluged in devices | | Lock/unlock the door with smartphones | Guests' comfort & experience, less plastic is consumed if the cards are excluded | | Smart elevator recognizing guests' destination | Optimize number of lifts and energy use | | Automated assistant present for special orders | Avoid calling, optimze tasks stored in the system queue | | Improved parking | Lighting control triggered by motion \\ Customized lighting quidance for the guest to find their parking lot | | Shared hybrid/electric cars | Reduce fuel consumption | | Facilities activated upon users' presence or query | Efficient energy use (gym is powered on, swimming pool is heated only when visitors choose to come mentioning it in the hotel app | | Robotization of simple tasks: cleaning, delivery (food, tea set, towels) | Reduce use of elevators and extra energy | \\ ==== Long-term implementation (5-10 years) ==== Long-term results can be achieved upon technological readiness of devices. ^ Optimization ^ Example ^ Effect ^ | Virtual reality for travelling | VR use for quick journeys | Reduced carbon footprint, since guests do not use tansportation | | Sightseeing with a robot | Drone accompanying hotel guests on a walk | Customized sightseeing can reduce the travel expenses, including CO2 | | 3D printing of furniture and clothes with the use of biodegradable materials | Guests do not have to travel with large luggage, they print clothes instead | Reduced cost of travelling | | Holographic projection for design purposes | Users can change holographic picture projected on their room setting to any pleasant environment (seaside, mountains) | Less materials are needed for different room designs | | Cisco Meraki equipment for network devices | Manage the network of devices with a centralized dashboard | Monitoring energy consumption of the whole network, reducing the cost | | Systematic green audit | Independent parties perform audit on the hotel chain and suggest improvements | Optimization of energy consumption | | Advanced air sensors | Aromatherapy in the room | Saving space which was previously used for spa | | Adjusting room walls | Shaping the suits for number of guests who would like to live together | Reduces construction cost | \\ //Fancy improvements enhancing guest comfort// * Wearables (bracelets) for guests, which show their mood and reflect their readiness to interact with hotel staff or they want the least interaction possible * AI holographic image of a fitness trainer right in a guest's room * Changing the shapes of walls and ceilings, adjust colours, create sofas standing out from walls using a smart wall material ====== Monetization & Value ====== * **Energy savings & personal bonuses** Bonus: 5 € cents for each kWh saved by a room 10 % savings for an average hotel room = 71 kWh = 3,5 €/h for the greenest guest Bonuses can be used for hotel payments, drinks, other pleasantries 10% energy * **3D Printing of the Wardrobe** 1 bag 23 kg = 9 kg airplane fuel = 22 € added for a ticket = 5 T-shirts & 1 suite on a 3D printer * **VirtuTravel** 10km in a car = 1.37kg CO2 VS. 5 hours of HTC Vive = 211g CO2 * Direct Savings: 10% daily energy savings for a 1000 room hotel with room square 15 m2 results in 50 million €/year * Market Value: Act as advertisers for equipment manufacturers and provide discounts for guests * Marketing Image: The first “Green Enabler” hotel where guests can control their environmental impact and get incentives for being green ====== System Architecture ====== {{:homeautomation2018:hotel:systemarchitecture_.jpg?800|}} ====== Implementation ====== **Devices used on the System:** 1. FHEM server: DHS with antenna 2. Philips Hue Bridge to connect HUE lights with the FHEM server. 3. Philips Light Huego + LightStrip Plus for signalling 4. HomeMatic Switch Actuators to completely power off appliances 5. Temperature and humidity sensor to trigger ventilation system **Implementation Scenarios:** ** Scenario 1 ** Used Devices: Temperature & Humidity Sensor , Philips Hue Iris Light, HomeMatic Switch Actuator (FAN) ** Scenario Description ** Hotel Automation technology will be present in every room of the hotel. Each bathroom of the hotel will have an automated ventilation system and a temperature and humidity sensor. Moreover, the hotel will possess a control room which will have leds that will represent the current state of each guests’ bathroom. In our case, the Philips Hue Iris Light will represent the led in the control room. If the temperature or humidity surpass a certain threshold, the automated ventilation system will be triggered, and the corresponding change will be triggered to the respective led of the hotel’s control room as well. ** Configuration ** First, all the devices must be paired with the FHEM server. ( T&H sensor, HUE lights, wireless switch actuator ). The detailed procedure can be found on the report of this project. The following figure shows the paired devices for our purpose. Thereafter, you create a generic notification and change the DEF field with the following code. This will create a trigger to activate the system. HM_341B72 { my $temp = ReadingsVal("HM_341B72","temperature",0); my $humi = ReadingsVal("HM_341B72","humidity",0); if ($temp > 27 or $humi > 35) { fhem "set HM_3F88A7 on"; fhem "set Philips_HUEDevice3 hue 65324"; } else { fhem "set HM_3F88A7 off"; fhem "set Philips_HUEDevice3 hue 37243"; } } ** Scenario 2 ** Used Devices: Philips Hue LightStrip, Three-State Door Sensor ( as a Resource Usage Signaling ) ** Scenario Description ** The hotel automation technology will manage to influence user’s behavior. Sensors and actuators will be embedded throughout the guests’ rooms in the hotel and will be able to provide resource accounting at a user level. Each guest will have a Philips Hue Lightstrip outside of their respective room. These lights will change color depending on the amount of resources , i.e. energy, water, etc…, the guests have used. The light strip will display green, if they maintained an acceptable level of resource consumption, red, if they surpassed their allocated resources for the day. People outside of the hotel will be able to see whether the guests of GreenInn are being resource efficient ( i.e. green ) or not. If the green light is maintained during the whole day, guests will be able to gain “carbon” bonuses that can be exchanged for drinks and food. ** Configuration ** The devices’ configuration can be found on the report annexed on this wiki. The procedure is the same as the Philips Iris Hue light. With the following code you can create a trigger for the outdoor striplights. The first will signal that the guest has an adequate resource consumption. HM_30EA82:closed set HUEDevice4 hue 0 The following code will indicate that the guest has surpassed its allocated resources for the day.
