Enhancing Smart Buildings: Terabee’s GDPR-compliant people flow counters and people occupancy counters
Smart buildings are undergoing a revolution, and at the heart of it lies the marriage of powerful sensor networks and clever data analysis. This dynamic duo is transforming buildings into efficiency champions, user experience havens, and cost-cutting machines.
Terabee is fueling this transformation with their GDPR-compliant people counting and occupancy tracking solutions. These innovative tools are tailor-made to meet the needs of both the companies building the smart building IOT infrastructure and the data analytics wizards unlocking hidden insights.
Data-driven decision making
People flow counting and occupancy counting sensors from Terabee leverage state-of-the-art Time-of-Flight (ToF) technology and thermal infrared technology, combined with advanced algorithms, to deliver highly accurate and real-time data on the movement of people within a designated building or commercial space. These devices are designed to seamlessly integrate into existing IoT infrastructure, providing a robust foundation for data-driven decision-making.
One of the key technical aspects of Terabee’s solutions is their versatility and scalability. Whether it’s a small office space, a large shopping mall, or a complex commercial building, Terabee’s sensors can be deployed across various environments with ease. The sensors are compact, lightweight, and easy to install, ensuring minimal disruption to the existing infrastructure.
Privacy by design
Furthermore, Terabee people flow counters and people occupancy counters prioritize data privacy and security, complying with the stringent requirements of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Terabee ensures that no personal identifiable information is gathered, giving peace of mind to both building owners and users.
Time-of-flight people counting technology achieves GDPR compliance by its inherent design, meaning it doesn’t collect any personal data in the first place. Since ToF doesn’t capture images or videos, it’s impossible to link the data back to a specific individual.
Unlike traditional RGB cameras, thermal sensors capture heat signatures rather than images. Thermal sensors detect infrared radiation emitted by objects, including people.
Actionable insights = Smarter buildings
For IoT infrastructure providers, Terabee people flow counting and people occupancy counters offer a wealth of benefits. By accurately measuring people flow and occupancy levels, providers can give accurate data to enable building managers to optimize resource allocation, streamline operations and identify areas that are underused. Real-time data insights enable proactive decision-making, allowing facilities managers to respond swiftly to changing demands and trends.
Similarly, data analytics providers stand to gain significant value from Terabee’s solutions. By integrating people flow and occupancy data with other sources of information, such as environmental sensors and building management systems, providers can generate actionable insights that drive energy efficiency and sustainability. Advanced analytics capabilities enable predictive modelling, allowing providers to forecast future demand and optimize building performance accordingly.
People flow counting and people occupancy counting from Terabee
In conclusion, GDPR-compliant people flow counters and people occupancy counters from Terabee help IoT providers and data analytics companies unlock valuable insights in smart buildings, all while prioritizing privacy. Available in PoE and LoRa versions, the People Occupancy Counting offers ease-of-installation, robustness, and versatility, whether you need a tidy, streamlined wired solution or a flexible and far-reaching wireless one. Moreover, these sensors do not emit any signals. This translates into a low maintenance and low power consumption device with consistent performance over time, less interference and simpler installation.
Terabee offers the People Flow Counting L-XL LoRa device, enabled by LoRaWAN, which eliminates the need to install Ethernet cables or connect to the main IT system. It is also available in a PoE model. This is a highly accurate solution to gather people counting data from large doorways, entrances and indoor gates. Its smaller sibling, the People Flow Counting M, available in PoE and LoRa models, is suitable for standard doors and narrow corridors, such as for meeting rooms and waiting areas.
