How a global medical device company built its lab strategy on real occupancy data
A global medical device company needed to see how its labs were used across sites, but cameras were off the table and past projects stalled in IT approvals. Using cellular-connected Butlr thermal sensors, the team went from shipment to live data in as little as a week across six global sites. Occupancy trends now flow into Tableau and, through the Butlr MCP server, into the company's own AI tools, so lab usage questions get answered in seconds instead of hours.

Common questions
How do you measure lab utilization without cameras?
Butlr thermal sensors mounted above doorways count entries and exits using body heat only. No images or personal data are captured, which is why this medical device company could deploy them in sensitive lab environments.
How fast can occupancy sensors be deployed across global sites?
This company had cellular-connected Butlr sensors shipped and installed in about a week, without waiting on IT approval, and rolled out across six global sites.
