When implementing the smart workspace solution, there are two ways to identify desks. The first one is the iotspot HUB and the second one is with the NFC-sticker. By mounting and activating the NFC-stickers, all desks become visible in the app. Employees can now book these desks at home or scan the NFC tag to claim one.

The iotspot HUB operates with IoT technology and is connected to the app and sensors. If activated, the LED of the HUB turns blue, green or red. These colours indicate if a desk or meeting room is available, booked or occupied. Book an available workspace with the app or scan the iotspot HUB to claim one.

Bringing together the best of both worlds. DESK 2 is a power strip integrated with the iotspot HUB. It is a result of our partnership with Bachmann. The power strip provides each employee with power and a USB charger. It has been designed for flexible use at the office, meeting rooms or desk-sharing environments.

The desk sensor constantly measures desk occupancy. It provides insight into the use of workspaces and into which desk is available. Because of the ‘no-show’ feature, the sensor notes if someone didn’t appear. The reserved desk will be available again in the app.

The meeting room sensor constantly measures meeting room occupancy. Real-time data clarifies actual usage and which room is available. It helps to improve meeting room management and choices can be made based on facts. Because of the ‘no-shows’ feature, the sensor notes if nobody showed up at the booked time. The reserved meeting room will be available again in the app.

Measure CO2, temperature and humidity with the climate sensor. These values result in an office building climate factor. This shows on a scale from 1-10 whether the air quality in a specific room is well enough to work in. Better air quality increases productivity and concentration.

Measure the number of people using a meeting room or canteen with the people counter. To get an even better understanding of occupancy, this sensor provides additional meeting room use information. Due to the accurate technology people’s silhouettes will always be noticed. Even when they sit still.

The web portal dashboards display data measured with the sensors. It offers an overview with detailed information about the utilization of the office, floors, zones, desks and meeting rooms per day, hour or minute. In order to optimize the office layout and capacity, this data supports making choices based on facts.
