We all know what it is to be in meetings all day long. Difficult,
exhausting and often not sweet-smelling at all. However, we might not realise
how important the air and the light are in our working space. That’s why
CubeSensors has been developed!
CubeSensors are networked, tabletop sensors
that track temperature, noise, light, humidity, barometric pressure and air
quality in every room. They can even pick up unwanted vibrations that shake up
your building. After this, all this information is immediately streamed to the
cloud. In this way, you can access it from any device anywhere. Additionally,
you can see the historical trends of environmental changes and follow the
effectiveness of your actions. Via the app, you can even be alerted whenever
your environment subtly reinforces workplace or domestic unhappiness. What’s
more, CubeSensors is energy efficient. The device only activates when it is in
range of a connected base station, and its battery lasts up to two months
without recharging. How wonderful is that!
The co-founder of CubeSensors, Ales Spetic, explains
to us why this is so important: “You can act on something only when you can
measure it. People adapt to the conditions they are in, however, their stress
level and productivity adjust accordingly. For example, if you work in a loud
environment, your stress level increases and you notice that only in the long
run. Similarly, it’s quite often that we work in an office when it gets darker
outside and we forgot to switch on the light until we feel the strain on our
eyes.”
Wouldn’t this be useful when we are locked up
in our room all day long during the exams or even when we are having long
meetings or classes in hot and smelly class rooms? And don’t forget about the
cutting-edge design which would certainly bright up the room. Yes, it would be
useful! The only drawback could be the price: a pair of CubeSensors currently
costs $249. Interested? Follow the CubeSensors blog on
