- Proactive management: Failure prevention
- Recommendations: Improvement suggestions
- Self-optimisation: Continuous automatic improvement
Concrete example: A typical day with KNX AI
6:30am - Smart wake-up
AI detects your light sleep phase and adjusts the alarm for optimal awakening. Progressive preparation of the environment.
6pm - Adaptive return
Geolocation and traffic analysis to prepare the home before your arrival. Personalised atmosphere based on your mood.
10pm - Predictive night mode
Automatic activation based on your physiological signals and habits. Optimisation for restorative sleep.
2. Universal connectivity: Matter, Thread and 5G
