In today\u2019s workplaces, schools, and public spaces, building managers are under constant pressure to optimize comfort, safety, and energy efficiency. One of the biggest challenges is understanding how spaces are being used. Traditional occupancy monitoring solutions often rely on cameras or motion sensors, raising concerns about privacy and surveillance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why CO2 is a Reliable Indicator of Occupancy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Every time we exhale, we release carbon dioxide (CO2). In enclosed environments, CO2 levels rise proportionally with the number of people in the room. By monitoring changes in CO2 concentration, it becomes possible to estimate occupancy without tracking individuals or compromising their privacy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This approach eliminates the need for cameras or intrusive technologies, making it an ideal solution for workplaces, classrooms, restaurants, and shared public spaces where trust and privacy matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

HibouAir: More Than Just an Air Quality Monitor<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

HibouAir is a standalone, plug-and-play indoor air quality monitoring device. Beyond its core role in tracking CO2, temperature, humidity, noise, and particulate matter, HibouAir doubles as a privacy-centric occupancy meter<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
