Integrating immersive virtual reality (VR) technologies and multimodal IoT-enabled wireless sensor networks for real-time smart human-centered HVAC building system interaction and thermal comfort assessment and visualization

Smart and Sustainable Built Environment, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: unknown

Published: Feb. 8, 2025

Purpose By harnessing technology developments such as Internet-of-Things (IoT)-enabled intelligent sensors and immersive virtual reality (VR) experiences, facility managers can access real-time, precise information on thermal comfort-related indicators through models. While prior research studies have developed key technologies for improving the understanding of comfort its impact occupants’ well-being productivity, there remain areas yet to be explored, especially in relation integrating both real-time data from multimodal IoT-enabled smart VR technologies. Hence, this study demonstrates potential IoT assessment visualization well user interaction with HVAC systems enhance comfort. Design/methodology/approach To develop proposed integrated analytical framework paper, various steps were implemented. First, four sensing stations created installed collect (i.e. temperature relative humidity). Second, a environment was using Unity engine offer an experience. Third, into by transmitting it cloud via MQTT protocol server, programming scripts provide multiple functionalities users, including visualizing along entire indoor space interacting controlling cooling heating systems. Fourth, applicability effectiveness validated evaluated 92 participants survey questionnaire. Findings The obtained results importance aspects graphical satisfaction, spatial presence, involvement, experienced realism, low-to-no cybersickness overall application among others. More specifically, findings reflected that participants’ average scores sense involvement realism 4.69, 4.61, 4.71 4.53 out 5, respectively. showed capabilities serve powerful feature enables comprehensive variations across room/office space. Also, no statistically significant differences between responses experience those limited-to-no experience, thus further highlighting usefulness not only users but also different skills background. Originality/value This has revolutionize way built environments are managed interacted with, where monitor, assess visualize interact control devices real-world distance framework’s ability dynamic continuously updated assessments conditions positions valuable tool prompt adjustments optimize levels. Ultimately, provides intuitive platform manage comfort, promoting healthier, more productive eco-friendly environments.
