Overview

The Intelligent Buildings Software Stack (IBSS) by Mitsubishi Electric ICONICS is a cloud-native, IoT-enabled Digital Twin platform designed for smart buildings. It securely integrates spatial, static, and live system data to unify IT, OT, and IoT systems. With open APIs and pre-built integrations, IBSS empowers building owners, operators, and occupants to plug-and-play sensor networks and user apps, avoid vendor lock-in, and gain actionable analytics. Built on Microsoft Azure, it offers scalability, AI-driven predictive analytics, and a modular architecture for tailored smart building deployments.
