MICROSENS Smart Matrix Sensor uses innovative infrared matrix sensor technology to
measure room temperature from the ceiling position. Unlike conventional temperature sensors, which measure the temperature of the air around them, the matrix sensor measures the temperature of the surface it “looks at”. This allows the mounting of the sensor on the ceiling, where normally temperature measurement is not very reliable.
The integrated 8×8 sensor matrix makes it possible to average the measured temperature over a larger detection area and filter out unwanted heat sources such as people, electronic devices or even hot coffee cups.
In addition to room temperature, the sensor also measures room brightness and humidity.
The Smart Matrix Sensor has two RJ-45 connectors with MICROSENS NeuronGrid Bus interface for connection to a MICROSENS Smart Lighting Controller. The Smart Matrix Sensor is designed for suspended ceiling mounting. Up to 24 smart[1] can be easily cascaded into a single bus line with a total length of up to 200 m to provide long range and wide area coverage.
The collected sensor data is processed directly by the Smart Director App or the MICROSENS microRTS to control the room heating/cooling and to dim the lights. In addition, the data can be visualized in the MICROSENS Smart Building Manager and made available to other systems.
