Reliable Data

The device’s on-board data storage will accumulate counts during a network outage and backfill the data upon reconnection. Our proactive technical support continuously scans for offline sensors and floating accuracy for prompt corrective actions.

Object Classification

Make the data work for you! Easily separate and report on entrances and exits of adults and children, ideal for libraries and museums. A group counting filter is also available, ideal for retailers interested in buying units rather than individuals. The automatic people counter’s AI algorithms eliminate false positives caused by non-person objects.

Zone Monitoring

Start counting beyond the threshold! Zone monitoring allows you to capture the total traffic and average visit duration of a specified area, such as a museum exhibit or a cash register queue. A single people counting sensor can have up to 8 individual zones of polygonal shape. U-turns are detected and omitted.
