The present disclosure provides systems and methods for occupancy detection. In various embodiments, the occupancy detection system includes a server configured to wirelessly communicate with one or more occupancy detectors. Each occupancy detector includes or is associated with an object holder. The object holder can have one of two occupancy states: an occupied state in which an object occupies the object holder or an unoccupied state in which no object occupies the object holder. The occupancy detector includes a sensor and a controller configured to use sensor feedback to determine when the object holder changes occupancy states from the occupied state to the unoccupied state or from the unoccupied state to the occupied state. When the controller determines that the object holder changes occupancy states, the controller generates occupancy data that reflects this changed state and sends it to the server.
