II.  Introduction

Comfort Window is the next generation in smart
thermostat   design.   With   innovative   energy
efficient   technology,   Comfort   Window   saves   in
electricity   costs;   and   with   a   full   color   touch-
screen   LCD,   Comfort   Window   presents   a
modern and elegant look to fit in with any décor.

Comfort Window not only controls temperature,
it also controls humidity.   With  

ComfortWindow

technology, users can see at a glance whether
their   home   is   within   their   own   personalized
window of comfort, taking into account humidity.
Comfort   Window   can   also   cool   or   heat   their
home even further into their window of comfort
for free by utilizing outdoor air to cool or heat the
home   when   it   is   possible   to   do   so.     Not   only
does   this   create   a   more   comfortable
environment, it also lowers total compressor run-
time significantly, thus reducing electric bills and
lowering the home's total carbon footprint.

With a comprehensive array of output controls,
internet   control   via   smart-phone   apps,   and
outdoor temperature and humidity measurement
capability, Comfort Window is truly versatile.
