IoT People Counting Sensor: Connected Space Intelligence

The Brief

Connected buildings need simple, reliable people counting at doors and zones—feeding occupancy data into BMS, energy, and workspace systems without complex infrastructure.

The Challenge: Fragmented Occupancy Data

Many facilities still rely on isolated counters or manual logs. Without networked IoT sensors, occupancy cannot drive HVAC, cleaning, or desk strategies in real time.

The Solution: Milesight IoT People Counters

We rolled out Milesight IoT people counting sensors at key entrances and zones, integrating counts into a central dashboard for live occupancy and historical trends.

Facilities teams achieved:

Live Zone Occupancy: Instant visibility into how many people are in each monitored area.
Energy Alignment: Feed occupancy signals to HVAC and lighting schedules to reduce waste.
Simple Scale-Out: Add more sensors over IP without redesigning the whole system.
