Ambi Labs Officially Unveils Ambi Climate: The Delightful Air-Conditioner Add-on That Predicts Your Indoor Climate
HONG KONG, July 11, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Ambi Labs officially announces the
launch of Ambi Climate -- a delightfully simple add-on upgrade that optimises
your home's air conditioning ("AC"). Ambi Climate simplifies your comfort,
taking over the management of your AC to maintain perfect indoor conditions for
your home while minimising energy consumption. Ambi Climate uses proprietary
machine learning techniques to predict conditions in your home and learns your
preferences, local weather patterns and your home's heating and cooling
profile. Ambi Climate is the result of over two years ofAsia focused research
in user behaviour and air conditioner usage and performance.
Ambi Climate "Recently, several learning thermostats and AC controllers have
appeared on the market," saidJulian Lee, founder and CEO of Ambi Labs, "but
most of these predict the schedule of the user, i.e. when they are home and
when they are out, and automatically switch on and off the AC to match. Our
research shows that this isn't a challenge inAsia - users typically switch on
their ACs when they need them, and do not need help in this regard."
Over the last two years, Ambi Labs has conducted online surveys across ten
key markets inAsia, with over 4,000 respondents. These respondents have clearly
indicated their primary AC challenge is in maintaining comfortable conditions,
and that they are concerned about the resulting high cost and carbon footprint.
Overall, 72% of respondents in the region identified with at least one AC usage
issue, such as finding the room too warm, too cool, too dry or too humid at
times.
Ambi Labs' research indicates that these difficulties are largely due to the
outdated design of existing AC remotes. Julian commented: "Current remote
controls encourage the user to focus on power and temperature buttons, so it is
unsurprising that many users engage in inefficient on/off control behaviour -
they switch on their ACs when they are hot, and switch them off when it gets
too cold. The resulting 'yo yo-ing' in temperature, as some of our research
participants called it, is both uncomfortable and a waste of energy. They have
also complained about needing to adjust their ACs as much as every 30 minutes,
and some habitually wake up in the middle of the night to adjust the settings."
Ambi Climate harnesses machine learning and big data techniques to solve
these problems. It is the world's first system that learns not just your
preferences, but also predicts how conditions in your home will change. Ambi
Climate's patent pending algorithms build up a holistic picture of your home,
and are able to adjust your AC settings to maximise your comfort, no matter the
time of the day, or outdoor weather patterns.
Ambi Climate also provides deep, data-driven insights into the conditions in
the user's home, and the impact of their usage behaviour. "Most people know
that closing the blinds during the day will cut down the heat trapped in the
home - reducing the cooling required in the evening, yet how many people really
do that?" commented Julian. "Ambi Climate gives you insight into these factors,
so that you can better understand the impact of your decisions."
