Occupancy Monitoring System, these words are enough to understand what it can be especially during COVID era. Occupancy monitoring is designed to lets you know the presence and count of people in indoor places like room, office spaces, shopping mall , retail shop etc in real time. Sensors can be positioned at entry and exit doorways to allow you to see 24/7 usage and real time monitor footfall count in space.
Occupancy Control System is one of the best example of the Internet of Things (IoT) based technologies. Thanks to the arrival of super-affordable and the ubiquity of wireless networks, it’s possible to track physical walking in premises to real time data. Connecting up all different location footfall statistics and adding occupancy sensors to them adds a level of digital intelligence to devices, enabling them to communicate real-time data without involving a human being. This IOT based system is making the fabric of the world around us smarter and more responsive, merging the digital and physical universes
It’s been several years this technology is in existence, over the time it evolved. The sensor technology has enhanced resulting in an accuracy-level that makes occupancy monitoring a viable solution. This technology has multilevel applications. Several example of Occupancy Monitoring are:
- Checking for office occupancy
- Parking occupancy status – parking lot
- Vehicle cabinet occupancy in automobile industry
- Room occupancy sensor to control electricity usage
- Tracking attendance of an event
- Shopping premises occupancy control and so on..
