Digitalization surrounds us in every aspect of our daily lives. Of course, this development also does not stop in the working environment. Smart technologies are being used in various ways at home but, naturally, also the office – with smart tools, you can open and close shutters, operate projectors, control light as well as heating, and a lot more. The key term is energy efficiency.
Smart Office – a definition
But what exactly is a smart office?
A smart office uses specialized tools and software to create a connected and dynamic system. The devices that are connected via the internet build the so-called Internet of Things (IoT) at the workplace. With that, you easily create particularly energy-efficient spaces with resource-saving technology that also provide the highest comfort and security for employees in the work environment. The Office 4.0 develops hybrid work systems for the cooperation of employees and their teams across different departments – and various locations. It uses software for video conferencing to make communication internally and externally easier, digital whiteboards, cloud telephone systems as well as many other smart solutions. Smart office systems not only save labor and time, but they also improve the productivity and well-being of your employees, as well as the service for your customers.

What kinds of technologies are being used in smart office systems?
Office and administration buildings can be specifically modernized with building digitalization and the implementation of smart office solutions for the management of various systems.
-
Smart security concepts
With smart technology at the office, you can connect CCTV cameras, security systems and employees. For example, if you implement smart security systems, you can react quickly and efficiently to any kind of hazard in the working space with a centralized user interface – no matter if it is about fire damage, technical failures, break-ins, etc. Intelligent smoke detectors alarm the fire department independently, if fires occur.
Due to this tech and its automation, you can minimize the hazard of severe damage. -
Digital access checks
Car park gates, door access or lifts can be operated digitally in smart offices with the help of face recognition. This way, people who are not authorized to enter the building are automatically filtered out. With corresponding smart access checks, you can efficiently prevent unauthorized access to your office space. -
Payment processing
Employees can process payments via app with internal cost centers, which makes transactions in the smart office much easier. -
Booking of seats and rooms
It can be useful in office spaces – especially in co-working spaces without a fixed seating plan – to book or occupy working spaces or rooms directly via smart office software. With the right desk sharing app, it’s easy for employees to check when meeting rooms are occupied and when they are free to use. Also, employees get to decide where they want to work specifically, if they prefer to sit next to a window one day, they can decide to work in a quieter corner of the office the next day.
Tip: You can also use tablets as digital signs in your office. The screen is put up on doors or walls and shows how long the corresponding rooms are occupied. This makes for more transparency and clarity for everyone at the office. -
Presentation and screen operation
With tablets, you can control projectors during work related presentations. This way, you cannot only scroll through your presentation, but you can also switch back and forth between multimedia content. The Sunset Console is perfect for mounting as well as charging your laptop during your presentation. -
Automated shutter and temperature control
Lighting and room climate can also be operated in a smart office. The right systems make it possible for shutters to automatically adjust to the sunlight and for heating systems to heat, corresponding to the outside temperature.
A smart office works like an interconnected brain that reacts autonomously to problems, changes or hazards. With that, it reduces work steps in everyday business so that employees can fully concentrate on their respective tasks. Beyond that, IT-systems help create a better understanding of their needs and requirements. Processes can also be further streamlined and simplified with targeted, ongoing analysis.

Tablet mounts for the smart office
Tablets are perfectly suited as a control center from which various smart products and gadgets can be operated in a smart office. This way, projectors can be turned on and off or windows can be opened and closed, to name a few examples.
Our functional and stylish tablet wall mounts sensure that the tablets are mounted securely at the right height. The brackets can be easily attached to the wall so that they are in reach and can be operated comfortably.
Especially convenient: Thanks to the fixed frame of the models Dame Wall and Companion Wall, the devices are also reliably protected from damage and theft. With the included screws and dowels, you simply attach the frame to the back part so it cannot be taken off again. |
Our new Sunset- and Moonlight models make for a special eye-catcher in the office space. The round mounts in silver or gold create a particularly elegant look and can easily be integrated as a table or wall console into the room concept of your smart office.
Good to know: Convenient tools such as the Displine PoE Converter 22W can be used to your advantage in combination with your wall mount. With that, it is possible to charge your device via USB-C plug and to establish a data connection with up to 95 Mbps. |
