The constant variation in environmental conditions (e.g., rate of use of spaces, lighting and temperature conditions) exposes the performance of the built environment to fluctuations and, in extreme cases, even shocks. To minimize the risk on the performance of the built environment, a decisive contribution is offered by the responsive infrastructure and construction, i.e., IoT-supported self-adapting assets able to sense the environmental conditions, deduce the required changes and adapt the performance automatically. The main contributions of my research in this area include the development of:

​

• New solutions for responsive buildings to adapt automatically to indoor temperature using Wi-Fi and Bluetooth signals-based people-tracking systems and reactive thermostats. Reference publications: Martani et al., 2012.

​

• New solutions for real-time monitoring and dynamic interventions setting in complex building installations. Reference publications: Rota et al., 2020.

​

• New solutions for responsive train stations to adapt automatically to passenger flow using RGB cameras and deep sensor-based passenger tracking and responsive gates. Reference publications: Martani et al., 2015; Martani et al., 2017. Reference projects: Pedflow project.

​

• New solutions for responsive traffic and parking navigation systems. Reference publications: Martani, 2011. Reference projects: AIDA2.0 project.
