Lighting control: turning lights on or off as per a specified schedule or based on inputs from sensors
Electric power control: controlling and monitoring core electrical equipment's power usage and functioning
Security and observation: accessing CCTV data and maintaining surveillance to detect any intrusion
Fire alarm system: detecting and controlling smoke and activating the alarm when required
Water supply: detecting hydraulic flows and leaks, automatically opening and closing valves and monitoring and optimising temperature deviations
