This application is originally developed for the optiPoint IP phones to display the gauge of different purposes using the APM/DSM unit. At the moment for demo purposes the application requires user input for different environmental factors. However in future, modification of IP phone software can be considered to obtain the value of environmental factors from hardware sensors conected to IP phone using an USB interface. Also data from sensors could be relayed to a central server which could control a buildings climate control system. <flash>file=Environmental.swf|width=720|height=560|scale=exactfit|bgcolor=#ffffff</flash>
