What does a Grid-EYE Sensor do?

Humans
infrared
emission is
ideally detected
by Grid-EYE
Various bodies
emit thermal
energy in the
form of infrared
radiations.
Grid-EYE
detects and
convert IR into
electrical
energy.

expected to grow at a rate of 14.07%
annually between 2016 and 2022
 Following are some of the major factors
driving the growth of the smart home
market worldwide:
 significant advancements in the IoT market
 Increasing need of the consumer for convenience
 Safety and security
 Rising need for energy saving
 Low carbon emission-oriented solutions
 Human presence and position detection is
playing a major role in smart homes.
 Thermopiles are a major technology for
this purpose

• Presence detection:
 Count - How many people are in the area
 Position - Where are they located
 Movement direction - Where are they moving
 Temperature Information - Ambient temperature of the room
 Information is then fed into a central server to control Air-conditioning and Lighting
 Results of using thermopiles array sensors:
- Save Energy
- Consumer Comfort

STOVE GUARD
 EU Regulation that every household to have a stove guard
 Total no. of households in EU in 2014 were 216 million

TV Control
 Grid-EYE can detect if there is someone in the room and control
the television.
 Some use cases that can be realized are
 Switch on the TV when someone enters the room and sits on the sofa
 Switch of the TV when everyone walks out of the room
 Detect no. of people and adjust brightness of the TV

ASSISTED LIVING
 Assisted Living is one step ahead of people detection
 Grid-EYE are getting very famous in this area
 With Grid-EYE the position of a person can be accurately detected
 This is helpful in fall detection in apartments and hospitals
 Several ways to achieve assisted living application
 Wall mount sensor modules

Ambient Assisted Living
 Sensor on the roof
 Application: People and Fall detection in Hospitals/old
homes/Apartments
 Could be used for all other features of smart homes mentioned
previously as well.

Smart Homes & Buildings, Grid-EYE Sensors & IoT

Where is the Future taking us?
 Sensors will not work as stand alone units
 Data from sensors is sent to cloud where it is fed in to
various use cases.
 Sensors and IoT go hand in hand

IoT CLOUD
Grid-EYE
collects data
and sends it to
the cloud

CONCLUSION

Conclusion
 World is getting smarter and so are houses and buildings
 New technologies are needed to improve living standards and
to make life easier.
 Grid-EYE will be the most important technology in human
detection for many use cases in smart homes and smart
buildings.

In 2018 we will celebrate
100 years of excellence in
electronics.
A Better Life, A Better World.
