There is a range of different compatible hardware which can be used to enhance RICOH Spaces modules. ​In this article, we will focus on IoT sensors.

RICOH Spaces integrates two types of sensors: ​

  • Occupancy sensor: It’s a type of motion sensor that detects the presence of a person within a designated area/space (i.e., the office or meeting room). Occupancy sensors are increasingly used in IoT networks to enhance room efficiency and space utilisation. ​

  • Environmental sensors: Used for monitoring indoor environmental quality in spaces to better understand building health, comfort, and ventilation and energy consumption.​

Key Benefits:

  • Analytics Reports: Better understand the comfort of the workplace - to ensure it's optimal for productivity and employee and visitor comfort, - and the occupancy of your office.

  • Health Metric Understanding: Explore environmental health metrics to improve workplace well-being and sustainability.

  • ESG Projects: Drive initiatives meeting ESG criteria, demonstrating your dedication to environmental stewardship and corporate responsibility.

  • Energy Monitoring: Optimise energy consumption with advanced monitoring systems for a more sustainable workplace environment.

  • Live data and automatic cancellations: Live occupancy of spaces on mobile and web and automatic cancellation of unused spaces (meeting rooms and desks) (set through Location's policies).
