A business device that can accurately monitor the efficiency of employees is a CEO's dream device. The Hitachi Business microscope by Hitachi will record a variety of factors when it comes to employees and relay the information.
The human factor in companies is the most varied and wildly inconsistent factor in businesses. One day, morale could be great, other days, productivity can be way down and often companies don't know why. This device will use a combination of infrared sensors, an accelerometer, a microphone sensor a wireless communication piece and an LCD screen to gauge workplace interaction ad body language in the workplace.
The business device has also been shown to work in limited testing. In a retail store after results were taken in by the device, employees were moved around and productivity went up 15%.
