MyDesk has introduced a feature that automatically releases meeting rooms when they are not in use. The solution is based on sensor data and ensures that rooms are quickly made available to others if a reservation is not utilized.
Better utilization of meeting rooms through automatic release
When a room is booked but the sensors do not detect activity, the room is automatically released after a set number of minutes. This reduces wasted time and contributes to a more efficient use of the company’s meeting facilities.
Insight into usage patterns and capacityneeds
The sensors measure both presence and number of people in the room. This makes it possible to analyze meeting culture and capacity needs and to assess whether the size and number of meeting rooms match the actual usage.
Allowing for natural breaks and longer meetings
The solution distinguishes between empty rooms and situations where participants temporarily leave a meeting. For longer meetings where participants go to lunch or take a short break, the room is not accidentally released. However, if the meeting ends early, the sensors detect this and release the room.
Collaboration with the IoT factory
The sensors are delivered in collaboration with IoT Fabrikken. MyDesk is responsible for the software and integration, ensuring a stable and coherent solution that combines sensor data and meeting reservations for a more efficient meeting experience.
