What are Smart Spaces?
Smart Spaces are physically existing or digital environments
in which people and technology-based systems interact inopen, networked and intelligent ecosystems. These are basedon sensor-generated building status data. Smart Spaces
adapt to the needs of their users and can decrease runningcosts, increase health & wellness, optimize productivity as
well as saving energy & CO2.

What is the market for
Smart Spaces like?
“Smart spaces (…) will disrupt andtransform entire markets.
(…) Smart spaces have a very high mass
because they offer broad, cross-industry
appeal wherever people and mobile traffic
require observation and management.”

The global smart spaces market is projected to growat a value CAGR of 16.2 % during the forecast period(2022 – 2032) and is estimated to reach a market
value of US$ 53.632 bn by the end of 2032.

How do Smart Spaces work?
Smart Spaces are equipped with networked sensors thatcollect environmental and status data at multiple spots inthe building. The data can be processed locally on site or,if desired, in a cloud-based IT platform – also as a “digitaltwin” if required. Thus, digital services and analysis tools
complement the physical space. A dashboard presents thedata in a structured and user-friendly way so that managers
and decision-makers can review it and utilize it for intelligent

What are the Use Cases ofSmart Spaces?
The current top 5 use cases for Smart Spaces are:

1. Office Space Optimizationtable occupancySensors provide data showing occupancy of areas, rooms oreven individual desks or chairs enabling 25-40 % savings in
office space required.

room booking

2. Digital Restroom Management
Sensors provide data to enable on-demand cleaning,
disinfecting and stocking of restrooms. They show real-time
availability of facilities and any alarm situations.

3. Employee Productivity(Health & Wellness)
Sensors monitor and control key parameters (e.g. air quality,
lighting, temperature, humidity & occupancy levels), leading
to up to 15 % increased productivity and 15 % lessabsenteeism.

4. People Counting
Sensors provide the real-time data required to monitor occupancy levels in offices, conference rooms, retail spaces etc. forspace/energy optimization or on-demand services. They canalso monitor people counting to ensure no over-occupancy andlack of social distancing.

5. Energy Monitoring and Savings
Sensors monitor occupancy and key parameters suchas temperature, window status and lighting and control
these according to actual demand, helping to saveup to 30 % energy.

What are the benefits ofwireless technology in SmartSpaces?
Sensors play a pivotal role in intelligent buildings.
They provide the raw data for digital space management.
Wireless-based solutions offer clear advantages in SmartSpaces:> Simple, quick installation without cables – no downtime or
closing of areas, no mess or noise> More cost-effective than wired solutions (up to 70 % forretrofitting, around 30 % for new buildings)> Flexibility: “Peel & Stick” sensors or push-buttons can beinstalled anywhere, easily added or repositioned> Data can be sent via existing WiFi™ network in building –no new infrastructure or wiring necessary

Wireless sensors and Wi-Fi access points makebuildings smart in an instant.

The battery-free wireless technology from EnOcean goes
one step further.
> Self-sufficient operation thanks to energy harvesting:wireless modules harvest energy from the environment(e.g. movement, light, temperature differences).
> No battery changing, no maintenance, no toxic waste> Comprehensive ecosystem with interoperable products fromnumerous suppliers (international standard)> Proven: EnOcean technology installed in over 1,000,000
buildings worldwideSources:
