The World’s First Truly Wireless Sensor Wins the AHR Innovation Award

The PassiveLogic Sense Nano has been honored with the prestigious AHR Innovation Award for Tools and Instruments, adding to its previous recognition by both Red Dot and iF DESIGN last year. This accolade underscores the Sense Nano's revolutionary impact on building technology.
As the world's first truly wireless sensor, the Sense Nano eliminates the need for battery replacements by harvesting ambient energy from its environment. It automatically forms a mesh network with its peers, creating a self-powered ecosystem of data collection points throughout a building.
A triumph of miniaturization, the Nano packs 7 sensors housed within a solid machined anodized aluminum ring that encircles a crystalline white diffuser that fits into any architectural environment. This thoughtful design ensures that even when deployed in large numbers, the sensors maintain the visual integrity of the space.
Like a building scientist in the palm of your hand, the Sense Nano generates a physics-based digital twin that digitally fuses air temperature, radiant temperature, humidity, light level, air pressure, indoor air quality (when wired), and occupant location services into a singular understanding of the building environment. Networked to the Hive Platform, together the Nano’s deep insights power first of it’s kind comfort control centered on human physiology.
The Sense Nano's remarkable 30-second installation time, facilitated by our Quantum Lens mobile application, is redefining industry standards. This efficiency removes traditional barriers to comprehensive sensor deployment, allowing what once required weeks of labor to be accomplished in a single day. As a result, outfitting large-scale buildings — from multi-story commercial structures to expansive warehouses—with hundreds of multi-sensors is now not only feasible but practical.
As a key component of the PassiveLogic ecosystem, the Sense Nano enhances our Hive Autonomous Platform's ability to create truly autonomous environments. By providing constant high-fidelity data, it optimizes building performance, enabling automatic adjustments to lighting, temperature, and ventilation based on real-time occupancy and environmental conditions.
At PassiveLogic, we're pioneering the shift from building management systems (BMS) to autonomous management systems (AMS), ushering in a new era of infrastructural robotics — the world's largest physical AI marketplace. The Sense Nano is a cornerstone of this mission, pushing the boundaries of what's possible in autonomous buildings.
We're not just optimizing buildings; we're transforming them into active participants in our quest for a more sustainable, efficient future. The Sense Nano enriches our autonomous systems, contributing to a future where buildings are dynamic, responsive environments that adapt to occupants' needs in real-time.
