The customer's post-purchase experience is more important than ever!

Every element of the purchasing process is important, but it is believed that getting the final interaction point in the buyer's journey right, which occurs after the purchase, is the most crucial. In fact, "86% of customers say that the experience after the purchase has the greatest influence on their decision to choose the same brand again." Customers often feel they have the least control at this final stage. If there is a unified approach to customer service in the purchasing process, the time spent waiting for the product after clicking "purchase" can be significantly reduced, alleviating stress. The problem is that many retailers struggle to instill confidence in customers regarding the post-purchase process.

Not the wonderful experience you think, but the experience that the customer desires.

The experiences that customers seek are as diverse as individual personalities. One of the wonderful experiences that customers may envision is a sense of closeness to the brand through high-touch communication. If we could recommend products that align with their preferences based on previous purchase history, the customer's purchase rate would increase. Alternatively, if we can provide such services to customers seeking convenience, they may return to shop with us repeatedly. To serve customers better, it is essential to seamlessly integrate physical stores, online platforms, and mobile services, offering a wide range of fulfillment options from same-day shipping to home delivery. Additionally, we must not forget about customers who want to finish their shopping as quickly as possible or those who might abandon their purchases without hesitation if there are long lines at checkout. *For more details, please download the PDF or contact us.*

Are you struggling to explain "safety" to the client using just drawings? • The risks in blind spots are difficult to convey to the client through drawings alone. • Safety measures often become a target for cost reduction, making it hard to communicate their necessity. • There is a concern that the client might say, "It's more dangerous than I thought," after completion. Risks that are clear to design professionals are not easily understood intuitively by clients who are outside the field. This document is not just a simple explanation of sensor functions; it is a guide to visually explain "why sensors are necessary in those locations." It can be used directly as explanatory material for clients. Here are three key points for utilizing this document: 1. Visualization of Risks Blind spots during departure and contact risks within the site are illustrated clearly. 2. Clarification of Selection Criteria A comparison table outlines the differences between complex sensor types such as infrared, ultrasonic, and loop coils. 3. Diagram of System Configuration It illustrates not just the sensors alone, but how they are combined with rotating lights and control panels, providing practical assistance for electrical equipment design. Please make use of this to prevent "rework after completion" and "accident risks."

In facilities operating nurse call systems, we have made bed exit sensors wireless, allowing them to notify in conjunction with the nurse call system. By simply connecting the mat sensor "Foldable Thin Matt-kun," the body movement call "Ugo-kun," and the wheelchair body movement call "Ayumi-chan" to the transmitter HB-RS, you can make the bed exit sensor wireless. The infrared sensor "Just Place Pole-kun" has the transmitter HB-RS built-in. This helps prevent accidents caused by falls, slips, or wandering, contributing to the efficiency of medical operations. 【Features】 ○ Wireless conversion by simply connecting existing sensors to the transmitter HB-WSK. ○ Bed exit sensors notify wirelessly in conjunction with the nurse call system. ○ Up to 5 transmitters can be registered with one receiver. ○ The communication distance between the transmitter and receiver is approximately 10 meters. ◎ For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.

We will introduce the implementation results of the sensor technology developed by the Hotron Group, which has been cultivated over more than half a century, through customer case studies. In addition to automatic door sensors, we also offer a wide range of vehicle detection sensors and nursing/care sensors. We have many implementation examples available, so please take a look at the case study page.

Full and empty management refers to the real-time display of parking availability and the management of efficient use of parking spaces. By utilizing Hotron's sensors, drivers can quickly discover available parking spaces, achieving efficient parking lot operations. ■ For large parking lots, the "floor management method" and "block management method," which focus on cost reduction, are recommended. Sensors are installed at regular intervals to count the number of vehicles passing through. This method offers the advantage of easy installation and low costs. 【Target Products】 - Vehicle Count Sensor CCS2 - Ultrasonic Sensor HM-UX2/UW2 ■ For smaller scale operations, the "space management method," which installs sensors in each parking space to display availability with high accuracy, is recommended. By ensuring accurate full and empty displays, it helps prevent unnecessary entry of new vehicles and enables safe parking lot operations. 【Target Products】 - Occupancy Detection Sensor HM-UX2/UW2 - Occupancy/Pass Detection Sensor HM-LC6 - Occupancy Detection Sensor HM-LC7/LC7-FLS - Occupancy/Pass Detection Sensor HM-S6 - Occupancy Detection Sensor HM-S8
