BUILDING CONTROL FEATURE

Occupancy-Based Room Automation

Make every room respond to who is there, how many people are present and whether the indoor environment is comfortable.

True Occupancy, People Counting and IAQ data can help lighting and HVAC systems align operation with real room demand instead of fixed schedules alone.

THE ROOM-LEVEL GAP

A schedule knows the time. It does not know the room.

Rooms change throughout the day. A person may be present but still. A meeting can grow from two people to ten. CO₂ can rise before discomfort becomes obvious.

01

Is anyone still here?

True Occupancy provides a more dependable occupied / vacant signal during quiet activity.

02

How many people are here?

People Counting adds anonymous headcount and room-use data.

03

Is the room comfortable?

IAQ sensing shows when ventilation and environmental conditions need attention.

ONE ROOM. CHANGING DEMAND.

See how the same room calls for a different response.

Select a room state to see how occupancy, headcount and IAQ data can support lighting, ventilation and terminal HVAC control.

High occupancy can trigger an immediate cooling response while elevated CO₂ calls for more fresh air or an alert.

Illustrative room states only. Control logic and priority levels can be configured according to project requirements and BMS strategy. Final setpoints, delays, control stages and HVAC outputs are defined for each project.

THE THREE SIGNALS

Know who is there. Understand demand. Confirm comfort.

01 · TRUE OCCUPANCY

Keep the room active when people are still truly present.

Conventional motion detection can lose a person during quiet work, study or a presentation.

True Occupancy recognises breathing-level micro movement, providing a more dependable occupied / vacant signal for lighting and room-control strategies.

Maintain comfort while occupied, then return lighting and HVAC to the agreed setback only after vacancy is confirmed.

02 · PEOPLE COUNTING

Control demand by how many people are actually in the room.

A room with two people does not create the same ventilation or cooling demand as a room at full capacity.

Anonymous headcount data can help the BMS or room-control layer adjust fresh-air volume, fan speed and terminal-unit demand more closely to actual use.

03 · IAQ & DEMAND-CONTROLLED VENTILATION

Respond to how the room feels, not occupancy alone.

Occupancy explains demand. Indoor air quality confirms whether the environment remains comfortable.

CO₂, temperature, humidity and other available IAQ values can help the control system increase, maintain or reduce ventilation according to actual room conditions.

ILLUSTRATIVE PROJECT LOGICA project may use CO₂ above 1,000 ppm as a trigger to increase ventilation or notify the facility team. Final limits must reflect the room type, local guidance and commissioned sequence of operation.

THREE SIGNALS. ONE ROOM RESPONSE.

Presence tells the system when. Headcount tells it how much. IAQ confirms whether conditions are right.

Koolmesh provides the available room-level data and integration route. The BMS or local controller applies the agreed logic and response. Available data, writable points and control outputs depend on the selected devices, HVAC system and project configuration.

WHERE ROOM DEMAND CHANGES

Designed for spaces that never stay the same for long.

Meeting rooms

A small meeting can become a full room within minutes. Headcount and CO₂ help the control strategy keep pace.

COMPATIBLE PRODUCT

Build the sensing and control route around the room.

Select products according to the required data, installation method, HVAC interface and BMS integration route.

Exact product availability and integration compatibility must be confirmed during product selection and project review.
