Distech Controls Inc., an innovative pioneer in intelligent buildings, announced an expansion of its Resense line of sensors and interfaces that create smarter, more dynamic spaces. The company’s award-winning product, Resense Move, introduced in 2024, is joined by a new line of Resense Air products.

The expanded line strengthens the company’s position in redefining how spaces adapt and respond to the needs of occupants. Together with Resense Move, Resense Air empowers occupants to adjust settings in a space to meet their unique needs.

Balancing comfort with energy efficiency

Teams are increasingly expected to do more with less: balancing comfort, energy efficiency, and space utilization. The Resense product line is designed with every stakeholder within the building in mind:

  • Facility Managers who need to run efficient spaces
  • Occupants who expect comfort and wellness
  • Tenants who want smart, future-ready buildings

Facility teams need to respond with solutions that bring the best in technology, hardware, and design together

With buildings accounting for 40% of global energy consumption, and the rise of flexible work strategies reshaping space utilization, system integrators and facility managers face mounting pressure to deliver attractive, operationally efficient, and sustainable environments.

Facility teams need to respond with solutions that bring the best in technology, hardware, and design together. With the expansion of their Resense product line, they’re delivering exactly that: sleek, easy-to-install products that balance empowering occupants with maintaining high standards for optimization.

Resense product line

Laura Carminati, Product Line Director at Distech Controls, comments, “We’re excited to grow our Resense product line and reinforce our strategy in creating spaces designed to meet the needs of everybody.”

She adds, “As we continue to demand more from the spaces we live, work, and play, facility teams need solutions that bring the very best technology into a sleek, easy to install product that balances empowering occupants, while maintaining standards for optimizations. With Resense products, buildings become more responsive, more efficient — and more aligned with the way people actually use spaces today.”

Resense Move

Resense Move stands apart in the sensor market by combining AI-powered people counting, indoor air quality monitoring, and BMS-ready design all within one sleek device. At the core of Resense Move is its AI-powered thermal sensing, which goes beyond simple presence detection.

Unlike traditional sensors that can only tell if someone is in a room, Resense Move can accurately count the number of people in a space while still respecting occupant privacy. This level of detail enables precise HVAC adjustments and smarter energy use, directly supporting both comfort and efficiency.

Real-time adjustments

Resense Move enables real-time adjustments to HVAC systems based on actual occupancy

By integrating directly with building management systems, Resense Move enables real-time adjustments to HVAC systems based on actual occupancy. Its AI-powered people counting allows buildings to condition only the spaces in use, while reducing wasted energy without disrupting occupant comfort.

Resense Move also supports healthier indoor environments. With a built-in VOC sensor that monitors air quality and empowers facility teams to increase ventilation only when needed, organizations can avoid unnecessary energy usage, while ensuring their spaces have continuous, healthy airflow.

Resense Air

Resense Air empowers occupants to monitor and adjust settings within a space, enhancing comfort and well-being. With Resense Air Display, occupants can easily view and change temperature and humidity, while advanced multi-sensing technology tracks temperature, humidity, and CO2 to maintain healthy air quality.

Designed for seamless integration, the Resense Air Series works with ECL LonWorks, ECB BACnet, and Eclypse BACnet/IP controllers. Its consistent configuration and backwards compatibility simplify installation and upgrades, saving time for system integrators and facility teams.

Resense Air Display

The Resense Air Display introduces a modern look with a larger screen and capacitive touch buttons, and also doubles as an efficient commissioning tool. Together, the Resense Air products extend Distech Controls’ commitment to openness, flexibility, and occupant-centric design.
