Density
What Density is
Density combines occupancy sensors with software to show how people use physical spaces. Its products cover meeting rooms, open spaces, phone booths, and desks, while Atlas provides occupancy and visit analytics for workplace, hospitality, education, and airport lounge settings. Atlas presents occupancy and visits in 15-minute increments, with building and floor views, custom operating hours, flexible timeframes, and downloadable charts and data.
The Waffle sensor reports counts of 0, 1, 2, or 3+ people. Its API provides real-time and historical data, and developers can use WebSockets to stream live information. Density says its API can also feed live space availability to conference room booking and other workplace apps. Waffle specifications include dual-band Wi-Fi with WPA2 PSK, an adjustable 18-foot range, and data latency of less than one second.
Density says its radar sensors do not use cameras or capture, store, or interpret personally identifiable information, and do not track identities. It lists HTTPS/TLS 1.2 for data in transit, AES-256 at rest, regular firmware updates, third-party vulnerability testing, and redundant cloud-hosted services. Plans include software billed per unit and a separately priced Waffle sensor. Density was founded in 2014 and is headquartered in San Francisco, California.
