Traditional presence detection methods can prove difficult in hotel environments, with challenges ranging from privacy concerns to temperature complaints. Ultra-wideband (UWB) radar offers a more precise, private way to detect presence in real time throughout your entire facility — helping you strike the perfect balance between comfort and efficiency. Explore the many ways it can help you provide a positive guest experience, prioritize staff safety and satisfaction, and deliver a strong return on investment.

In hotel rooms, movement-based temperature and lighting adjustments are common causes of guest complaints. That’s because traditional methods like PIR sensors rely on large body motions to detect presence — so when guests become still during sleep, their comfort (or your HVAC budget) often pays the price. With UWB radar sensing, you can count on true, real-time presence data to help you optimize energy use without impacting your guests’ comfort.
