Zone based daylight/shadow management

Manage the shadows projected by your environment

animeo KNX guarantees optimum lighting management, glare protection, and better viewing comfort. This saves energy spent on artificial lighting and improves the lighting conditions in the room. Shadows on the building facade can be taken into account for a defined zone to maximize the use of natural light.

Energy savings

Strategies for each facade and all seasons

Solar gains from the sun in winter when occupants are absent.

Diminished slat-turn angles and reduced cooling requirements in summer.

Intelligent wind protection controlled using facades affected by the wind. In all other facade zones, the blinds remain in the sun protection position and thus reduce the load for cooling.

Wind direction measurement

Protect your solar shadings

The blinds move up into the security position only when the facade is affected by wind speed, depending on wind direction. All other areas of the facade remain shaded. In the event of a storm, the blinds on all facades move up.

High level of user comfort

Keep the control!

 All blinds can be operated locally. The user is able to override the automatic function.
