2. Occupancy sensor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occupancy_sensor

   Occupancy sensor types include: PIR sensors, which work on heat difference detection, measuring infrared radiation.Inside the device is a pyroelectric sensor which can detect the sudden presence of objects (such as humans) who radiate a temperature different from the temperature of the background, such as the room temperature of a wall.

3. Occupant-centric building controls - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occupant-centric_building...

   Examples of implicit occupancy sensors includes CO 2 sensors and Wi-Fi-connected device count. [1] The selection of occupancy sensing devices depends on the size of the space being monitored, the budget for sensors, the desired accuracy, the goal of the sensor (detecting occupant presence or count), and security considerations.

4. Building automation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Building_automation

   A temperature sensor in the zone provides feedback to the controller, so it can deliver heating or cooling as needed. If enabled, morning warmup (MWU) mode occurs prior to occupancy. During morning warmup the BAS tries to bring the building to setpoint just in time for occupancy. The BAS often factors in outdoor conditions and historical ...

5. Passive infrared sensor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passive_infrared_sensor

   A passive infrared sensor (PIR sensor) is an electronic sensor that measures infrared (IR) light radiating from objects in its field of view. They are most often used in PIR-based motion detectors . PIR sensors are commonly used in security alarms and automatic lighting applications.

6. Smart thermostat - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smart_thermostat

   Instead of using just one sensor in the thermostat, this team experimented with placing motion sensors and door sensors throughout the house to gain better understanding of the occupant's sleeping and occupancy patterns. These sensors communicated with each other and used an algorithm to quickly determine whether the occupants were active ...

7. Lighting control system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lighting_control_system

   In the paper "Energy savings due to occupancy sensors and personal controls: a pilot field study", Galasiu, A.D. and Newsham, G.R have confirmed that automatic lighting systems including occupancy sensors and individual (personal) controls are suitable for open-plan office environments and can save a significant amount of energy (about 32% ...
