Driving energy efficient building design with people counting technology
Privacy and GDPR compliance
Terabee people counting devices utilize Time-of-Flight or thermal technology, ensuring accurate counting while respecting privacy concerns. With strict adherence to GDPR regulations and robust data security measures, architects and consulting engineers can confidently deploy these devices without compromising the privacy rights of building occupants. This commitment to privacy and compliance underscores the reliability and trustworthiness of Terabee sensors.
Empowering data-driven decisions
Understanding space occupancy is pivotal in making informed decisions regarding energy usage within buildings. Terabee people counting devices provide real-time, accurate data on the number of individuals present in a designated space. By leveraging this data, valuable insights can be gained into how spaces are used throughout the day, enabling tailored energy consumption when this data is fed into the heating, air conditioning and ventilation (HVAC) and lighting systems via the building management systems (BMS). Whether it’s adjusting lighting, heating, or ventilation systems, having precise occupancy data ensures that energy is used efficiently without compromising comfort or functionality.
Optimizing building performance
Terabee technology goes beyond basic footfall counting and occupancy monitoring. Advanced analytics capabilities offer detailed insights into occupancy patterns, peak usage hours, and occupancy trends over time. Armed with this information, architects and consulting engineers can optimize building layouts and space utilization to minimize energy waste. By identifying underused areas or peak usage zones, adjustments can be made to optimize energy distribution, ultimately leading to significant cost savings and reduced environmental impact.
Seamless integration and scalability
Terabee people counting devices are designed for seamless integration into existing BMS and Internet of Things (IoT) platforms. With flexible connectivity options and compatibility with industry-standard protocols, Terabee technology can be incorporated into their projects without disrupting existing infrastructure.
Furthermore, Terabee’s scalable sensor devices cater to projects of all sizes, from small office spaces to sprawling commercial complexes, ensuring that energy efficiency initiatives can be implemented across various architectural contexts. The LoRa people counter models provide secure and decoupled people counting data transmission, sidestepping any issues with IT networking and security, and are ideal for retrofitting in existing buildings.
Reliability and accuracy
Accuracy is paramount when it comes to people counting and occupancy monitoring for energy efficiency purposes. Terabee people counting devices utilize cutting-edge sensors and algorithms to deliver industry-leading accuracy levels, even in challenging environments with varying lighting conditions or crowd densities. Architects and consulting engineers can rely on Terabee people counters to provide precise occupancy data, enabling confident decision-making and effective energy management strategies.
People counters from Terabee enable energy efficiency gains
Terabee people counters gather data that enable optimized energy consumption based on real-time occupancy levels, so buildings can reduce their carbon footprint and operate more sustainably over the long term.
With its ability to aggregate data taken from up to five separate sensors, the People Flow Counting L-XL device offers easy installation and configuration. It is a highly accurate solution to gather data on people flow at large doors, entrances and indoor gates, such as university auditoriums and large lecture theatres. On the other hand, the People Flow Counting M device is suitable for standard doors and narrow corridors, such as in meeting rooms and washrooms.
Terabee’s People Occupancy Counting sensor stands out for its cutting-edge features. Utilizing advanced thermal imaging, this sensor offers real-time, high-precision occupancy monitoring. With its compact design and easy installation, it seamlessly integrates into various environments, from offices and meeting rooms to public areas, enhancing space management capabilities. The device can focus on multiple regions of interest, up to eight, to monitor or exclude specific areas.
From empowering data-driven decisions on space occupancy to optimizing building performance and seamlessly integrating with existing infrastructure, Terabee’s technology represents a significant step forward in the pursuit of energy efficient building design. With Terabee, architects and engineers can harness the power of accurate occupancy data to create smarter, more energy-efficient buildings for a greener future. Contact us for more information.
