Seeed Studio Use Case
Building Energy Retrofit with a Streamlined Power Monitoring System
Retrofit your building with energy monitoring and intelligent control — without shutting down operations or paying for a full BMS replacement. As a Seeed Studio Design Partner, we engineer the complete gateway and sensor stack into systems that integrate smoothly with your existing infrastructure.
Core Features
Unified Multi-Protocol Control:
The Seeed Studio gateway bridges common industrial protocols (like Modbus and BACnet), covering the vast majority of existing building devices. It consolidates sensor data, legacy protocol conversion, and edge control logic.
Long-Life Wireless Probes & Meter Integration:
Environmental sensors mount quickly and offer multi-year battery life. Universal data loggers bridge existing legacy electric meters into the wireless network, preventing "rip and replace" scenarios.
Intuitive Edge Dashboards:
Touchscreen panels give facilities teams a live energy dashboard and control interface. Edge AI agents can also monitor environments and trigger automated HVAC or lighting actions based on configurable cycles.
Key benefits
Find out how we can integrate smoothly with your existing infrastructure.
Non-Disruptive Installation:
Clamp-on power meters and wireless room sensors can be deployed while the building is fully occupied and operational. There is no need for invasive wall-tearing or power shutdowns.
Cross-Protocol Harmony:
It unifies fragmented building systems. A single dashboard can simultaneously control older Modbus HVAC units alongside newer DALI lighting networks, harmonizing control across the whole facility.
Immediate Efficiency ROI:
By actively adjusting setpoints based on real-time occupancy and ambient daylight levels, buildings immediately shed wasted power draw, rapidly paying back the cost of the retrofit hardware.
Why Partner with DeepSea Developments?
Our expertise in handling Seeed Studio technologies allows us to design and build outstanding devices.
Legacy Protocol Bridging:
We are experts in industrial communication. We reverse-engineer and map the data registers of your older building hardware so it speaks seamlessly with modern IoT networks.
Custom Open-Source Dashboards:
We build tailored logic layers using Node-RED and HomeAssistant. You retain full control and ownership of your building’s automation engine without being trapped in an expensive, proprietary vendor license.
Electrical Infrastructure Safety:
Integrating gateways into live commercial electrical panels requires strict adherence to safety standards. We design carrier boards and enclosures that meet rigorous electrical code requirements for safe deployment.
