ZilverHeat AI is a smart heating system designed to enable thermal comfort and energy efficiency in office environments. Using machine learning with sensor data it predicts user presence, desired temperature, and the time needed for preheating, which enables control over heating schedules. The system operates autonomously but also allows user interaction through a web interface for personalized adjustments. Due to hardware limitations, a simulated environment was developed to test the system’s logic, adaptability, and control strategies. The entire architecture is modular, making it easily extendable for future real-world deployment
The CS Design Project module is one of the two final modules of the Bachelor. In the design component of this module, students show that they master the entire design trajectory, from the first informal specification of requirements by a client to the delivery and presentation of a well-documented working product. Projects are submitted by clients from either inside or outside the University. Students perform the project in groups of 3-5 students under the supervision of a teacher from the Department of Computer Science. The supervisor is also the one who assesses the process and products of the group. Project deliverables include a project proposal, a design report, a presentation and a poster.
