Emotion-Aware Smart Buildings: CFD and Sensor Fusion for Adaptive Ventilation

Johns Hopkins University **

Open

Description

This project explores the integration of CFD modeling, IoT sensor networks, and emotional analytics to create adaptive ventilation systems in smart buildings. The goal is to enhance occupant well-being and energy efficiency by:

  • Simulating airflow and pollutant dispersion using CFD

  • Integrating biometric and environmental sensors (e.g., CO₂, temperature, heart rate)

  • Developing algorithms that adjust ventilation based on real-time emotional and physiological cues

  • Collaborating with psychologists and data scientists to validate comfort models

Ideal candidates should have experience in CFD, sensor integration, and machine learning. A passion for human-centered design and interdisciplinary collaboration is highly valued.
