Abstract
The Internet of Things paradigm envisions a world where every physical object is equipped with sensing/actuation capabilities and computing power and acquires its own digital identity. These objects are referred to as “smart” and have the goal of collecting and processing information about the environment surrounding them. One of the fields of interest in IoT applications concerns the intelligent management of activities in indoor environments, even if affected by unusual restrictions due to special conditions, such as those posed by the Covid-19 pandemic. This study focuses on the development of an IoT application based on the COGITO platform for the intelligent management of meeting rooms. By processing data collected from a set of IoT devices, cameras, and cognitive microphones, the developed prototype is able to autonomously monitor and make decisions about aspects that continuously affect environmental comfort, event management, and assessment of compliance with anti-contagious regulations throughout the time the room is occupied. After a brief review of the state of the art, the chapter describes the developed application. Furthermore, it highlights the features that make meeting room environments more comfortable for users and effective in managing events such as meetings and lectures.
