Description
The Smart Neighbourhood@Broomhill is a ground-breaking demonstrator project led by HouseMark for their client, River Clyde Homes (RCH). It will explore the benefits to landlords and tenants of the installation of a comprehensive package of sensor-based Internet of Things (IoT) devices in social housing.
The demonstrator is field testing around three hundred multi-functional IoT devices in RCH’s properties in Broomhill, Greenock, and the surrounding external estate. It is the first social housing project to bring together Hypercat-enabled near real time residential data from multiple IoT devices simultaneously, laying the foundations for interoperability within IoT ecosystems of the future.
Combined with the technology from the different partners, this means that the initial demonstrator can be scaled to support other landlords that in total have millions of properties nationwide.
