We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Control Technology",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Buildingtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Best results from natural ventilation system from
Cylon Controls, which we summarised at the time by saying "Low energy projects are increasingly making use of KNX or EiB networks for the control of blinds and natural ventilation systems".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Smart access for locker rooms from
Salto Systems: "The new i-Locker lock from SALTO Systems is designed to provide increased levels of security protection for lockers".
In August 2007, we covered the news from Color Kinetics
- take a look at Philips completes acquisition of Color Kinetics
which says: "Royal Philips Electronics has completed its acquisition of Color Kinetics Incorporated, a leader in designing and marketing innovative lighting systems based on Light Emitting Diode (LED) technology".
Take a look also at the news release from Paxton Access, Paxton Access appoints distributor in Bangladesh,
