Solarware Control Systems
Material composition: This automated device posses a sun tracking as well as scheduling capabilities that allows maximizing use of available daylight while also controlling glare and thermal gain. Three different types of systems with different material compositions are available.
The input system consists of solar panels connected to a basic control system that responds to a range of controls, including switches, timers, and remote controls.
The contextual system is made of more advanced system that allows an automatic alignment of four motors as a maximum that can be programmed. This device also has multiple stops and user feedback options, A/V and lighting control, and input from sun and wind sensors.
-the managed control system is intelligent control system software, which uses Matrix controllers to respond automatically to the Sun's position on a building.
Product's information: Solarware is a shading control system that manages light and glare through actively responding to consistent changes within the internal and external environment. The product can be set up in three different ways which are:
-input control systems, which simply respond to signals from devices such as sun sensors, switches, remotes, timers, or a combination thereof
-contextual control systems, which allows to each shading device to evaluate how its performance helps and enhances a specific lighting condition
-managed control systems, which provide a system-wide view of performance for greater customization and control
Green attributes: Reduces energy consumption and preserve our natural resources. Projects that uses Nysan’s products can earn LEED credits due to their sustainable qualities.

Engraved photographs in concrete.
Material composition: concrete
Product's information: The photograph is engraved into the concrete with a computer-based method which transfers the image data onto a layer or sheet of the material thanks to a milling technology that consists on converting into a 256 gray scales the scanned image. The transferring of the image onto the material is due by a machining file that identifies the gray values which are individually related to a specific milling command for a CNC milling machine. The milled module is used as mold for casting the elastic Photo-Engraving formliners. Their elasticity, quality and reusability make the recreation of the image onto the concrete surface possible.
Green attributes: United States Green Building Council (USGBC) member. Concrete has a high value of recycled content which could make a project earn credits for the Material and resources section of LEED .

Hot water from the sun
Material composition:
Solar collector made of a non-toxic, non-freeze solar fluid.
Product's information:
Solar thermal energy systems capture the heat of the sun and use it to heat. The system works even when it's cloudy. It’s a good way of reducing energy consumption up to 30%. The way the system works is that once the solar fluid of the solar collector is hotter than the water in the hot water tank, the solar station pumps solar fluid from the collector to the tank where it heats the water. After the hot water is heated, the solar fluid is sent back to the collector to absorb once again the solar heat.
Green attributes: Helps the environment by reducing the energy consumption of the environment and by avoiding the use of ozone depleting compounds that can be found in HVAC & R appliances
