3.4 INTERACTIVE FACADE

The term „interactive‟ is used less frequently with respect to building envelopes than in regards to computer-enabled artworks, and installations that encourage active public participation. However, an interactive facade requires human input to initiate a response, and it is also equipped with sensors and an automated building management system. It is programmed to optimize energy conservation while simultaneously ensuring the comfort of its inhabitants.

An interactive system is engaged with a user, based on an internal representation of its goals and the user goals.

An Interactive system is learned through continuous interaction with its environment, humans, and other machines. They perceive through their sensors, act through their effectors, and communicate with their environment and humans, using different machine learning frameworks and techniques. This creates an intermediate space between humans and their environment. Space where there are intelligent transformation and interaction that can sense, think, and understand its users / natural environment, and it can also absorb information and respond to that information accordingly.
