Building Automation Systems
Master automated systems for security, energy, maintenance, and comfort in buildings with this comprehensive 5-week course taught in Spanish.
Master automated systems for security, energy, maintenance, and comfort in buildings with this comprehensive 5-week course taught in Spanish.
This course explores the growing interest in building automation systems that enhance security, energy savings, and comfort in modern construction. You'll learn about automation technologies that optimize building operations through centralized systems, hardware, and software for monitoring and controlling various building components. The curriculum provides an integrated perspective from architecture, civil engineering, and electronic engineering, enabling you to develop a comprehensive understanding of design strategies, equipment, and programs required for complete automation solutions. You'll explore how automation involves conscious architectural and construction design that considers user needs, spatial requirements, and comfort conditions while respecting the surrounding environment. The course focuses specifically on home automation (domótica) systems, distinguishing them from urban automation (urbótica) and building automation for non-residential structures (inmótica). Through practical applications, you'll identify the characteristics, potential, and limitations of current construction technologies while discovering opportunities for technological innovation in your environment.
