Smart Desk Booking
The Floorsight Handset is an all-in-one desk integrated device that lets users find available desks, reserve a desk on the spot (or in advance), control their desk height preferences and peripheral power, and connect with other users.
The Handset is packed with features, including dynamic signage, booking status, team booking, contact location, height and power control, targeted alerts, and much more.
Occupancy Sensing
The Floorsense Occupancy Sensor intelligently detects actual workpoint occupancy. Its advanced algorithms can distinguish genuine occupancy from transient data, ensuring precise reporting.
The Occupancy Sensor is included as standard with the Floorsight system hardware, so you can see realtime occupancy, and automatically prompt occupants to check in if necessary.
Realtime Analytics
The Floorsense web dashboard offers a dynamic floorplan view of the workplace. Users can easily find available desks and colleagues, while administrators gain valuable insights into space usage with in-depth reporting.
The dashboard's intuitive interface means pre-booking spaces or finding users is just a couple of clicks away. Additionally, it equips administrators with the tools for full building restack planning.
Seamless desk booking.
Floorsight integrates workpoint booking software with one of our desk hardware options for frictionless desk booking and coworker location via the app or web. Each hardware option includes as standard the Floorsense occupancy sensor to indepently monitor actual space occupancy.
Combining realtime and historical booking and actual occupancy for workpoints allows facilities teams to make better decisions. Learn which spaces are actually used, by whom and when.
Card or App
Floorsight hardware allows users to reserve a desk for the day with a simple tap of a building access card or smartphone - automatically signalling their location on the building floorplan.
Both the Floorsight Handset and V4 Puck include an integrated RFID card reader that works with most standard access cards, including Mifare DESFIRE EV3, as well as Gallagher, HID, Indala and other major brands.
Desk Signage
The Floorsight Handset's dynamic desk signage shows the status, current user, and booking period of every desk, so users can find a desk within seconds. Both the Floorsight Handset and V4 Puck come with an unobtrusive indicator light that signal desk status with an intuitive traffic light system.
Integrated Charging
The Floorsight range offers flexible options for the convenience of at-desk charging. The Floorsight Display with the optional charging module offers USB-A and USB-C simultaneous fast-charging up to 100W, while the V4 Puck also provides Qi wireless charging.
Users will want to check in
To get reliable space usage data, you first need widespread user adoption and trust. Floorsight has been designed from the ground up to foster high levels of user compliance - which results in more meaningful data and reporting.
The key to user compliance is encouraging habit formation. Floorsight leverages the cue-response-reward loop to engage users and quickly generate high levels of habitual user engagement. Floorsight offers multiple cues to check in:
The puck or display indicator light will flash if the space is occupied without a checked in user. The display can also prompt the user with customizable text
Power to peripherals such as monitors and docking stations can be disabled until check-in, via the "No Swipe No Power" softwiring integration.
Optional audio alerts through the built-in speaker can remind users to check in.
“No Swipe No Power” disables peripherals until users check in.
For adhoc users the response required is as simple as possible - users simply need to place their building access card or smartphone on the Puck V4 or near the screen to check-in. If a user has prebooked a desk they dont need to do anything as the floorsense app running in the background can automate the check in process.
Height preferences are stored in the user’s app, rather the desk controller.
Follow-me ergonomics
Sit-stand desks are intended to improve users health, but they can have the opposite effect if not used correctly. Floorsight can store individually assessed sit and standing heights according to workplace OHS recommendations.
With the Floorsense mobile app, or via the Floorsight Handset, the user can immediately adjust their desk height to their saved preference.
The user’s desk height preferences are stored in the app rather than the desk controller. When the user moves between desks, the desk height is automatically programmed into the sit-stand motor on check-in.
As an employer in an ABW workplace, you can rest assured that you have taken steps to prioritise employee wellbeing.
Follow-Me ergonomics is compatible with many leading sit-stand desk manufacturers such as Jiecang, Linak and others, with more being added all the time.
Real-time occupancy data.
Used on its own or as included with the Floorsight V4 Puck or Handset, the Floorsense Occupancy Sensor can be installed on new or existing office furniture. The sensor discreetly monitors space utilisation in real-time and sends it to a floor plan of your workplace, providing unparalleled insights into space usage, capacity levels, and efficiency.
Intelligent Detection
With an AI-driven algorithm that works out of the box, the Floorsense Occupancy Sensor uses the latest technology to assess actual occupancy. You can easily fine-tune the sensor to account for challenging environments, like reflective surfaces, busy corridors, and other complex layouts that typically confuse less advanced sensors.
Infinitely Adaptable
Whether it's a desk or meeting table, seated or standing, a meeting room, or even soft seating, the Floorsense Occupancy Sensor has it covered. We work with leading furniture providers to provide seamless integration into the most popular workstations and office furniture.
Easy Setup
Floorsense is so simple to install, you won't require any IT specialists. With our cross-platform commissioning app, all you need to do is scan a barcode and input the desk number. The software does the rest. Within minutes, you'll be able to see the sensor's occupancy state on a floorplan of your workplace.
Powerful administration and reporting.
The heart of the Floorsense ecosystem is the Floorsense Admin Portal, which can be hosted either onsite or in the cloud. This intuitive web interface seamlessly integrates administrative operations with analytics and reporting features.
Real-time floor plans let you view desk occupancy across buildings and level, and highlight user maintenance requests.
Pre-booking desks or finding user locations is just a couple of clicks away.
Analyze workplace usage trends over time, from individual desks to groups, floors, or buildings. Easily export data for Excel and third-party BI tools.
Accurate occupancy data - Floorsense's ease of use ensures high compliance, meaning high-quality data you can rely on to make informed decisions.
Administration and Operations
Manage all levels of your company’s space with the Floorsense Admin Portal: from buildings, to individual floors, to single desks. A color-coded floor plan or grid view displays workspace states, with detailed pop-outs for individual desks showing reservations, occupancy, and event logs.
Create your own booking policies to suit your needs - such as allowing pre-booking, grace periods for user check-in, or auto-release for no-shows. Configure recurring team bookings that team members can claim. Group workspaces by type, location, and division, allowing for granular control over policy and reporting.
Analytics and Reporting
Get immediate insight into occupation levels with a per-floor heat map of your office, allowing you to immediately identify daily, weekly or monthly trends.
Group workspaces by type to see which workspaces are the most popular, and if these are oversubscribed at any time.
All reporting data can be exported into a PDF, Excel spreadsheet, or the raw utilisation data can be shared with external third party business intelligence tools, such as Microsoft PowerBI.
Auto-mesh networking
Forget upgrading WIFI or provisioning additional ethernet outlets. Floorsense and Floorsight work out of the box with a self forming, self healing low frequency radio mesh. No IT project required, and no interference or overloading of existing WIFI networks.
Floorsense mesh networking is based on the OpenThread platform developed by Google for Internet of Things (IoT) devices and smart buildings. Ultra-low power and highly reliable connections to desk devices comes standard.
The mesh network is aggregated at a single Floorsense controller installed onto each floor (larger floor plates may need two controllers). These controllers are small embedded appliances that can be hidden anywhere. If used in conjunction with the Smartalock locker system, the controller hides in the toe-kick space of the locker bank.
A single data outlet is needed per floor to join controllers into a common LAN, and a single Internet connection is needed for the entire site. Thats it. We believe the client networking requirements are the lowest and simplest on offer, while still remaining highly secure and available.
Easy integration
The Floorsense controller integrates natively with Smartalock locker systems, so users can control both lockers and desks from the Floorsense app. Our app can also manage a user's Vecos locker via API-level integration.
Open API for direct connection into other building management systems including PlaceOS using simple REST-based calls.
Import and export of user records from external building access card systems such as Gallagher, Integriti, and HID, along with Microsoft AD/LDAP and Azure AD / EntraID integration.
For rapid and secure end user on-boarding, Floorsense also supports Single Sign On (SSO) via Microsoft Azure AD (EntraID), Okta, Atlassian and many others via the SCIM protocol.
For desk reservation directly within your own custom app, we can supply approved customers with sample source code and SDKs to help you build a streamlined and company-branded employee experience.
