Pachube to sponsor afternoon tea

Opportunities to sponsor Be2camp 2008 are being snapped up quickly. The latest to jump aboard is Pachube, who will be funding our afternoon tea at the Building Centre in London on 10 October.

Pachube, briefly, enables people to tag and share real-time environmental data from objects, devices and spaces around the world. The point is facilitate interaction between remote environments, making no distinctions whether they're physical or virtual, fixed or mobile, buildings or devices. Accompanying this Pachube has been developing EEML, a protocol that works alongside the construction industry's Industry Foundation Classes (IFCs), flexible enough to describe the real-time dynamic state of buildings that are environmentally responsive and constantly changing; devices that are mobile and may have sensors embedded; or virtual environments that are constructed and modified by their inhabitants.

Pachube's Usman Haque will be in the USA on 10 October (aiming to follow Be2camp online), so Chris Leung will be coming along to talk about its technologies.
