Abstract
This entry defines and provides an overview of an emerging field, namely, human-building interaction, and identifies some of the key multidisciplinary research directions for this new field. It also provides examples of human-building interaction applications for providing personalized thermal comfort-driven systems, applications for allowing for adaptive light switch and blind control, and a framework for enabling social interactions between buildings and their occupants.
