The BuildAX family of wireless environmental monitoring devices comprises of sensors, actuators and a logger/router made available under an open license. The devices were developed within a joint research project undertaken by Newcastle University's Digital Interaction Group and Sir Joseph Swan Centre for Energy Research and the University of Strathclyde’s Energy Systems Research Unit .
The devices can be rapidly deployed to enable low cost built environment monitoring, and are fully compatible with the Open Source EnTrak™ system as a means to deploy ‘eServices’ for systems conditions monitoring, occupant feedback, performance certification and the like.
BuildAX resources and downloads are available in the OpenMovement Git repo ( click here ), including firmware and utilities.
