People Counting that Changes Operating Model

PEOPLE COUNTING

People counting solutions are efficient way to transform people flow into actionable data. In essence, the people counter utilizes various technologies to count individuals entering or exiting a specific area. With precise monitoring and counting, businesses can leverage this data to realize well-planned operations and management. It is valuable for applications like building, retail, and transportation. By adopting people counting solutions, businesses can gain valuable insights from data and leverage them to make informed decisions that drive profitability.

Space Occupancy

Space occupancy focuses on the real-time utilization of a given space, Using technologies to determine whether the area is occupied or not. By accumulating and analyzing data, businesses gain precise insights into the utilization rate of the monitored space, enabling effective management and optimal allocation of resources.

FAQs on Occupancy and People Counting Sensors

Q: How do the people counters realize and guarantee high accuracy

A: Milesight ensures high accuracy in our people counters through the utilization of advanced ToF technology. The AI ToF People Counting Sensor VS133 and Ultra ToF People Counter VS135 are equipped with upgraded 2nd generation ToF technology, offering industry-leading accuracy of up to 99.8%. The ToF performance has been upgraded with improved ability to filter ambient light, flexible scheduling usage, better heat dissipation, etc. The upgraded algorithm and advanced ToF technology enable these people counters to accurately count individuals even in challenging scenarios, such as dark carpets or when people are moving side by side. This guarantees precise and reliable data collection. For applications where strict accuracy requirements are not necessary, Milesight also provides other devices that offer a range of accuracy options to suit different needs.

Q: What about the data transfer frequency and storage capacity of the ToF people counters VS13x

The VS13x supports two reporting modes: immediate reporting and reporting on the dot. The immediate reporting mode allows for a reporting cycle to be set within the range of 1-1080 minutes. On the other hand, the hourly reporting mode supports a minimum reporting interval of 5 minutes and a maximum interval of once every 12 hours. The VS133 and VS135 included can be both applied in indoor applications while the VS135 Ultra ToF People Counter can also used in semi-outdoor and high ceiling mount applications with IP65-rated and 6.5m high ceiling mount performance.

Q: How to realize anonymity and achieve 100% anonymous performance?

A: Milesight Occupancy & People Counting Sensors use technologies, including ToF, PIR, and Thermopile, that won't get any personal information. The technologies remove all anonymous worries fundamentally. What's more the LoRaWan® protocol only transmit data will further guarantee anonymity.
