People counting in meeting rooms
Description of people counters for conference rooms
People counting sensors for meeting rooms help to track office space occupancy statistics and trends for facilities utilization efficiency analysis. Occupancy statistics from people counters used for office space daily management to check how many people using meeting rooms, how often, and at what time. It helps to find the best-fit conference room allocation for a particular group of visitors. Meeting room utilization analysis used for office space rationalization, meeting room utilization improvements, and further office development decisions. Wireless people counting sensors make system installation fast and straightforward, as well as it is friendly to office design and does not require any cabling work or any special mounting procedures.
We have developed real-time people counting sensors SensMax D3 TS and SensMax TAC-B for companies that create office space management solutions. This type of people counting sensor is designed to gather premises visiting statistics and record each visitor's movement direction with a timestamp. It allows getting detailed reports about meeting room occupation in realtime mode. People counting sensors deliver data to the server using SensMax SMX data gateway with LAN/Internet or WiFi Internet connection. The system collects visiting statistics and updates the database in the real-time mode. There is an option to export data from the SensMax cloud reporting system via API or directly from the data gateway via MQTT. It is a useful feature if you need to combine people counting data with a building management system.
For this solution you can use several device combinations
Real-time bidirectional mmWave sensors
Real-time bidirectional infrared sensors
How visitor counting system for meeting rooms works
Wireless people counting sensors for conference rooms deliver statistics to a central server in real-time mode. Visitors counting sensors can detect visitor movement direction IN or OUT. It allows to check the actual occupation of meeting rooms. Wireless people counters are battery-powered devices that work from standard AA batteries for up to 1 year. The real-time data gateway SensMax SMX TS reads statistics from up to 20pcs visitor counting sensors in a range of up to 800m and uploads it to the server via LAN/Internet or WiFi Internet connection.
People counting software options
Statistical data from real-time visitor counters displayed in statistical, analytical, and administrative reports per 5-minute time span. There is an option to view reports in the cloud reporting portal or install reporting software on a local server. Cloud reporting portal has the option to export data via API or there is an option to export data directly from devices via MQTT for easy integration in 3rd party reporting systems, i.e. building management system. Reporting software displays visiting trends and occupancy statistics of conference rooms that are useful for the optimization of utilization of office space.
