Technology
Presence sensors are transforming modern workplaces by making them smarter, more energy-efficient, and people-friendly. In an office environment, these sensors continuously detect human presence - even when there's minimal movement - using advanced technologies such as PIR (Passive Infrared), Microwave, and FMCW Radar sensing.
They're primarily used for lighting automation, ensuring that lights turn on only when a person is present and switch off automatically when the space is vacant. This eliminates energy wastage from forgotten lights and helps companies significantly reduce their power consumption and electricity costs.
Beyond lighting, presence sensors integrate seamlessly with HVAC systems, ensuring air conditioning and ventilation operate only when needed. This maintains an optimal thermal comfort level while improving energy efficiency.
