Why detect motion and presence in the office?

Detecting motion and presence in the office offers a number of benefits, including:

  1. Safety: By detecting the presence of employees in workspaces, companies can guarantee their safety in the event of an emergency, such as a fire or evacuation.
  2. Resource management: By identifying occupied and unoccupied areas, organizations can optimize the use of resources such as lighting, heating and air conditioning, thereby reducing energy costs.
  3. Productivity: By tracking employee movement and understanding their work habits, companies can design workspaces that are more ergonomic and better adapted to their employees’ needs, thus promoting productivity and well-being.

Presence detection: what’s it all about?

Detecting movement and presence in the office helps to :

  1. Improve safety: By quickly identifying occupied areas and sending alerts in the event of an incident, such as a fall or emergency situation.
  2. Optimize energy efficiency: By automatically controlling lighting, heating and air conditioning according to employee presence, to reduce unnecessary energy consumption.
  3. Facilitate space management: By providing data on the use of offices, meeting rooms and other spaces, enabling managers to better plan and optimize the layout of premises.

Nexelec presence sensors: an innovative solution for detecting office presence

Nexelec’s presence sensors use an advanced algorithm that combines the detection of brightness, movement and noise to identify the presence of individuals in workspaces. Thanks to this innovative technology, Nexelec sensors offer several advantages:
