A.I. To Control Air Flow in Underground Smart Complex “Santica”
Underground complex “Santica” in the heart of Kobe is the target of a 3-year initiative to develop an airflow control system based on AI sensors that detect the movement of people and air currents. The project was commissioned by Japan’s Ministry of Environment as a Low Carbon Technology Research and Development Program. It is a collaboration between Kobe University, Nikken Sekkei Research Institute (NSRI), Sohatsu Systems Laboratory Inc., and Kobe Chikagai Co., Ltd. (location provider).

The Sannomiya area in the heart of Kobe city is undergoing large-scale renovations, and the “Santica” underground complex is in a key location. We aim to use this underground-based initiative as a catalyst for making the entire city center “smart”.
Developing the next generation of airflow technology
Stations, airports and partially-open underground complexes have particularly high heating and cooling costs compared to regular buildings. Due to the complex nature of human movement in these areas, effective heating, cooling and ventilation methods are yet to be established. However, recent developments in IoT technology have made it possible to obtain more detailed data about these environments. This enables new airflow controls and creates new possibilities for reducing CO2 emissions.

Testing the effectiveness of AI-controlled airflow
Heating, cooling and ventilation is traditionally provided equally throughout a space. In contrast, the technology developed in this initiative will calculate the necessary heating, cooling and ventilation for each area, minimizing energy output. This will add a pleasant fan effect to the air currents. Through this project, we are testing the effectiveness of AI-based real-time data collection, analysis and regulation in predicting human movement and controlling our environment.
