Motion Sensor NB-IoT for Real-Time Presence Detection
The IMBuildings NB-IoT Motion Sensor is an advanced IoT solution engineered for indoor space occupancy monitoring and energy efficiency optimization. Designed to detect movement and presence, it triggers automated system actions exclusively when spaces are active—operating reliably across all indoor lighting conditions without requiring local gateway infrastructure.
Housed in a clean, white ABS enclosure with a compact footprint (88 x 88 x 25 mm), it allows quick, unobtrusive wall or ceiling mounting. Powered by 3.6V AA lithium batteries, it provides up to 2 years of continuous operational battery life depending on configured transmission intervals.
Connectivity & Real-Time Reporting
Direct Cellular NB-IoT Link: Connects directly via narrow-band cellular networks, supporting global LTE bands (3, 5, 8, 20, 28) for deep indoor signal penetration.
SIM & Protocol Support: Uses a standard Nano SIM (4FF) card and secure UDP protocols to stream motion events directly to central management servers.
Seamless NFC Configuration: Easily adjust device parameters, heartbeat signals, and motion reporting intervals via integrated NFC.
Direct Cloud & BMS Integration: Routes occupancy telemetry straight to third-party reporting tools, cloud dashboards, or Building Management Systems (BMS) without local network setup.
Hybrid Analytics Ready: Pairs seamlessly with people counting hardware to deliver comprehensive spatial utilization analytics.
GDPR-Compliant & Privacy-First: Operates in full compliance with privacy regulations, sensing physical presence strictly through motion detection without cameras or video recording.
Applications & Strategic Value
Retail Stores: Track movement in specific product display zones and fitting rooms to analyze shopper dwell times and dynamically automate display lighting.
Shopping Malls & Commercial Centers: Monitor movement in secondary corridors and service areas to trigger dynamic HVAC and lighting schedules, slashing operational utility costs.
Smart Office Buildings: Track meeting room and workstation utilization in real time. Integrates directly into building automation systems to trigger smart climate and lighting scenes based on actual occupancy.
Libraries & Museums: Monitor visitor activity in exhibition halls to automate environmental controls for sensitive artifacts, conserving energy when galleries are empty.
Public Restrooms & Hygiene Facilities: Track usage frequency to direct janitorial staff toward high-traffic restrooms, optimizing cleaning routines based on real demand.
