This patent pertains to Enlite’s innovative system for the configuration and management of building management controllers, operating through a secure, cloud-based framework. It simplifies the commissioning and operation of intelligent buildings.
The company points out that configuring field devices across multiple locations has historically posed challenges, consuming considerable time and resources. In the past, engineers were required to visit each site to manually configure controllers, repeating this labor-intensive task whenever operations changed.
According to the deep-tech enterprise, this newly granted technology adopts a cloud-native methodology instead. Controller configurations can now be created, adjusted, tested, and deployed remotely through a centralized system.
By digitizing this process, the system accelerates commissioning timelines and minimizes manual intervention. This enables faster and broader implementation of building automation projects.
The patented system also facilitates remote maintenance, featuring real-time synchronization, version control, and dependable configuration management. These capabilities empower building operators to manage operations across various locations consistently, maintaining accuracy and efficiency.
Gaurav Bali, Co-Founder and CEO of Enlite, stated, “Our first patent demonstrated that the hardware could operate wirelessly. This patent proves that the entire configuration process can also transition to the cloud. Together, they exemplify what a comprehensive Indian building automation company can achieve.”
Garima Bharadwaj, Co-Founder and CTO of Enlite, remarked, “Building automation has always involved a physical approach, with one engineer working on one site at a time. This patent shifts the focus to software, allowing configuration from the cloud in minutes, regardless of location.”
The technology is anticipated to benefit various sectors, including commercial buildings, airports, hospitals, industrial sites, educational institutions, hospitality venues, and data centers, all of which depend on secure, scalable, and centrally managed building systems.
