Abstract
The present disclosure relates to an environment control system for controlling environmental conditions in a building. The environment control system comprises a plurality of sensors located in different areas of the building. Each sensor is used for determining a measured value for one of the environmental conditions in the area where the sensor is located. Further at least one of the plurality of sensors is configured for exchanging data with at least one mobile computing device for modifying a target value of one of the environmental conditions for the area where the sensor is located. The environment control system further comprises an environment controller for receiving the measured values and the modified target values from the plurality of sensors. The environment controller is further configured for comparing the measured values with the modified target values for each area of the building and generating commands for each area of the building based on a difference between the measured values and modified target values. The environment control system further comprises a plurality of room controllers, such that each room controller is installed in a room in one of the areas…
