HTM Solutions (VTT LaunchPad)

HTM Solutions creates a completely new paradigm of spaces that autonomously adapt to individual occupant expectations, and not the other way around like with existing buildings. In built environment, HTM (Human Thermal Model) technology can be utilized for smart temperature control of spaces in several business segments. Such smart temperature control improves both thermal satisfaction of occupants and energy efficiency of buildings, by avoiding unnecessary heating and cooling. The most promising facilities for utilizing HTM technology are office buildings, hotels, hospitals, and homes for the elderly.

Another potential application area for HTM solutions is wearable technology. HTM mobile can be assembled on various portable devices such as smart phones, light-weight sensors and routers with wireless communication capabilities. This enables on-line estimation of human core temperature and thermal satisfaction under monitored environmental conditions.
