This paper introduces a sensor system based on indoor locations in order to implement the Building Energy Management System. This system consists of a thermopile sensor and an ultrasonic sensor. The sensor module is rotated by $360^{\circ}$ and yawed up-and-down by two electric motors. Therefore, it can simultaneously detect the number and location of the inhabitants in the room. It uses wireless technology to communicate with the building manager or the smart-home server, and it can save electric energy by controlling the lighting system or heating/air conditioning equipment automatically. We also demonstrate the usefulness of the proposed system by applying it to a real environment.

In an apartment or private building, it is difficult for the user to operate the elevator button in a similar situation with luggage in both hands. In an environment where human contact must be minimized due to a highly infectious virus such as COVID-19, it is inevitable to operate an elevator based on untact. This paper proposes an operating system capable of operating the elevator by using the user's voice and image processing through the user's face without pressing the elevator button. The elevator can be operated to a designated floor without pressing a button by detecting the face of a person entering the elevator by detecting the person's face from the camera installed in the elevator, matching the information registered in advance. When it is difficult to recognize a person's face, it is intended to enhance the convenience of elevator use in an untouched environment by controlling the floor of the elevator using the user's voice through a microphone and automatically recording access information.

Lighting that installed in large buildings detects a movement of passer using human-detecting sensor or occupancy sensor. It can turn on lighting automatically using sensor when there is any movement and turn off when there is no movement to reduce unnecessary power consumption. However, there is a problem of malfunction due to improper location of the sensor. Also the case of passage, even after passing through the passage, lighting is turned on for a long time. It does not reduce the power consumption efficiently. In this paper, we propose a method to control lighting by estimating the position of the passer. According to the result simulated in one passage, it is confirmed that the time of turning on the lighting is reduced about 7 minute compared to existing methods.
