Verkada Environmental Sensor Use Cases:

1. Vape detection
   Teachers and the other faculty can leverage the vape and smoke detection sensor in bathrooms and locker rooms to help identify vape events on campus. When paired with a Verkada camera outside of the bathroom or locker room, school leaders can capture additional evidence to
   help address, prevent and deter on–campus vaping.
2. Air quality monitoring
   Indoor school environments often contain unnoticed indoor pollutants, which are present in most buildings at 2-5 times the levels found outdoors and can cause a variety of health problems, including: headaches, fatigue, sore throat, dizziness and more. By monitoring CO2, PM2.5 and other indoor air quality essentials, schools can improve the health and safety of their indoor school environments.
3. Server room monitoring
   Schools today depend on high–speed internet connectivity and 100% uptime for key IT resources. To protect valuable IT infrastructure and avoid costly downtime, schools can use the Verkada sensors to proactively monitor temperature and humidity in IDF closets. By monitoring these conditions and receiving alerts in real–time as conditions deviate from pre–set levels, school IT professionals can ensure server and device uptime even when they’re not on site.
4. Food storage
   Schools often have on–campus dining options and associated food service assets such as refrigerators and freezers. If a door is left open or if one of these assets experiences unexpected downtime, school facilities can strain to meet the needs of students. As such, schools can use Verkada’s Environmental sensors to monitor refrigerators and freezers in cafeterias to minimize food spoilage and maximize freshness.
