📌 Project Overview#
Workspace Management is a smart, end-to-end platform designed to manage ZenSpace SmartPods — modern, IoT-enabled meeting and workspaces placed in public venues like malls, airports, hotels, and convention centers. These SmartPods are compact, soundproof units that can be booked on-demand by users seeking a quiet and private space to work or meet.The software system integrates a booking platform, IoT automation, and hardware management to ensure a seamless user experience while enabling venues to monetize otherwise underutilized spaces. From scheduling to automated lighting and fan control, and from real-time room displays to backend device coordination via Raspberry Pi and AWS Lambda, the Workspace Management platform ensures each pod operates independently, reliably, and securely.Whether the pod is located in a quiet corner of a hotel lobby or a bustling convention center, this platform makes it easy for users to book, use, and exit — while automating hygiene protocols, safety measures, and device management.🎯 Goals#
Provide users with instant access to SmartPods via web or touch display.
Offer venues a scalable and automated way to monetize idle space.
Maintain high standards of hygiene, privacy, and user trust.
Automate environmental controls (light, fan) to reduce energy waste.
Enable remote monitoring, analytics, and support for multiple pods.
