How to know if a room is occupied? Use Meeting room display

Meeting room display is the only best way to know if the room is occupied now.

How do you know whether your meeting room is occupied or not? By going in front of the room and peeking into it to see if anyone is in there? Or just knock on the door and walk into the room every time.

Knowing if a meeting room is occupied is one of the biggest questions in the office, and it is frustrating to be distributed by outsiders when you are in an important meeting. Some university research even shows that it takes more than 20 minutes to recover from interruptions.

So what should you do can quickly know the status of the meeting room without peeping into the meeting room or creating unnecessary distractions for your colleagues?

Is paper printout a choice for today’s office?

Some will say that a paper printout or an occupied sign will be enough for the case. However, you still need to go in front of the door and see if the room is empty. Also, it is hard for users to manage the room schedule as all of your meetings are ad-hoc.

Our answer is meeting room display.

Using ONES, there are different types of displays for you to choose depends on your case:

LCD displays

Crestron TSS-1070

Displays from Crestron and Qbic are the famous device for high-end, elegant, wall-mounted touch panel ideal for business room scheduling applications.

You can easily see the room detail, room status, and today’s booking schedule on the display. The light on the display reflects the status of the room so that you can know the room occupancy far from the room.

You can even directly reserve, check in, check out, and extend your booking right in front of your room. All records will be seamlessly synchronized to the data server and confirm your meeting will not be disturbed by others.

E-paper displays

Minew 4.2 Inch E-paper E Ink Screen E-ink Display Module

An electronic paper room display is another option for users who would like to have a lighter, simpler device without wiring. All you need is a Wifi network only.

E-paper screens such as Minew require very low power consumption and only need to replace the battery for years of usage. Also, these displays can be mounted wirelessly to nearly any surface without holes or drilling required. This means it is a more environmentally friendly and sustainable solution for room display.

But of course, this kind of e-paper screen can only show the most important information on the display and does not have a blaring light for showing the status of the room.
