Abstract:
A method for managing an environment, said method comprising the steps of:converting a plurality of environment indicators computed for a particular environment from among a plural of environments into a common transmittable data format, wherein each of said plurality of environment indicators is computed by an electronic environment measurement device from among a plurality of diverse electronic environment measurement devices; transmitting said plurality of environment indicators in said common transmittable data format to a universally accessible server system in association with a particular universal identifier, wherein said particular universal identifier is associated with a particular user; analyzing said plurality of environment indicators received at said universally accessible server system according to an environment sensitivity profile stored within said universally accessible server system in association with said particular universal identifier; determining a plurality of control signals at said universally accessible server system for adjusting a plurality of environment control systems that control said particular environment, in response to said analyzing of said plurality of environment indicators according to said environment sensitivity profile; and adjusting said particular environment as controlled by said plurality of environment control systems according to said plurality of control signals, such that a particular environment is temporarily managed via a universally accessible server system according to an environment sensitivity profile associated with a particular user.
