Your Workplace Has a Nervous System. Are You Listening?

Imagine navigating your day completely numb – no sense of pain, balance of fatigue. You’d be flying blind, making poor decisions and potentially causing serious damage. 

That’s exactly how many organizations are managing their workplace today: reactive, disconnected, and unaware of how their spaces are being used or underused. 

There’s a better path forward. 

Your workplace is a living, breathing organism, and occupancy data is its nervous system. All you need to do is tap into the data. 

Your corporate real estate portfolio is a living organism

A healthy body responds to feedback. A healthy workplace should do the same. 

Desks, meeting rooms, quiet zones, and collaborative hubs are the organs and muscles of your organization. But without occupancy feedback, they’re just static. 

Ignoring those signals leads to burnout, wasted space, and poor experiences. 

Listening lets you adapt, rebalance, and heal. 

Our office occupancy sensors act like proprioceptors, the subtle sensory systems in your body that let you know where your limbs are in space. They help you detect: 

• Overused zones (like congested breakout spaces) 

• Dormant areas (like ghost-town desk banks) 

• Imbalances between your space design and actual behavior 

The Healing Network Behind the Signals 

Just like the body has redundant systems to keep you functioning, HubStar’s occupancy sensors runs on Wirepas, a decentralized, self-healing mesh built for resilience. 

Each sensor is in constant communication with its neighbors. If one node fails, another steps in. If signal strength drops, the network reroutes data.

We call this a healing network, and it’s built to thrive in the chaos of real-world workplaces. 

And it doesn’t stop there. Depending on the space, environment, or security constraints, we can deploy sensors over Wi-Fi or cellular SIMs. That means we’re not locked into rigid infrastructure. The system adapts to its environment, just like the human body shifts between rest and activity, aerobic and anaerobic energy systems. 

Zones = Internal Systems 

Just like your body has specialized organs like the heart, liver and lungs, your workplace has distinct zones that serve different functions.

But you wouldn’t treat your liver like your lungs, and you shouldn’t treat your breakout rooms like your boardrooms. 

We define zones to help your workplace understand itself more deeply. That way, you can track: 

• Which departments need more space 

• Which spaces are thriving versus underutilized 

• How teams flow between focus and collaboration across the day 

Overlay booking data, badge scans, and Wi-Fi usage, and suddenly, you’re not just tracking space. You’re reading the pulse of your organization. 

It’s the difference between being numb and being self-aware. 

Listen, adapt, perform 

You don’t wait until you’re injured to drink water, stretch, or sleep. You act based on how your body feels and performs. 

Workplace leaders need to treat their real estate the same way. 

Expansion, downsizing, reconfiguration, all these are high-impact decisions. Why guess when you could diagnose? 

With the right sensor network, healing mesh, and integrated data, you’re not just reacting. You’re building resilience into the very structure of your organization. 

Know Your Workplace Like You Know Your Body 

Occupancy sensors are more than numbers on a dashboard. They’re part of a living feedback loop, helping you design, optimize, and evolve spaces that support how people actually work. 

Your building has a heartbeat. It has patterns. It has tension and flow. 

Wouldn’t you want to know what it’s trying to tell you?
