🏢 How to Use AI Layout Generation in eino
Generate optimized AP layouts instantly using location-based or description-based inputs. Get a complete starting point in seconds.
Overview
AI Layout Generation creates optimized access point layouts in seconds, giving you a complete starting point to refine rather than building from scratch. Choose location-based generation if you have a site, or description-based generation for early-stage projects.
What you'll need:
- Active eino account with Full AI license
- Project location OR project specifications (square footage, environment type)
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Open AI Layout Generation
Open AI Layout Generation from the new project menu or tools panel. You'll see two options: select a specific location on the map, or describe your project without a location.
2. Location-Based Generation
Use this when you know where the project is:
- Search for an address or navigate on the map
- Draw a boundary around the area you want to cover (click 4-6 points)
- Select the environment type: Warehouse, Retail, Office, or Outdoor
- Click Generate
- The AI analyzes the space and places access points optimized for that environment
3. Description-Based Generation
Use this for early-stage projects without a confirmed site:
- Enter the project size in square feet
- Select the environment type
- Add special requirements (e.g., high ceilings, heavy machinery)
- Click Generate
- Apply the layout to any floor plan later when you get site details
4. Refine the Layout
The generated layout is your starting point, not your final answer:
- Click any AP to select it
- Drag to reposition
- Adjust coverage parameters
- Add obstacles or walls
- Watch the coverage heatmap update in real time
Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate is the AI placement?
AI-generated layouts provide optimized starting points based on environment type. Always validate with simulation before finalizing.
Can I regenerate if I don't like the result?
Yes, adjust your parameters and generate again, or manually move APs after generation.
Does it work for outdoor projects?
Yes, select "Outdoor" as the environment type for outdoor AP placement.
What if I don't have a location yet?
Use description-based generation. You can apply the layout to a floor plan later.
What license do I need?
