Counting

People counting: Visitor and foot traffic

Visitors and people, counted automatically with a sensor or camera above the entrance. A standalone service, entirely without a parking system.

People counting automatically records how many people come and go and can be booked on its own as a separate service at any time, without a parking system. If you also use the PARQ parking system, for example as a local authority, you can get people counting free of charge as well. We count entries and exits and show how many visitors are on site at the same time and when the peaks occur: at events and festivals, at trade fairs, in town centres and at entrances.

How it workspeople counting.

A people count measures how many people pass an entrance and in which direction. Above each entrance and exit there is a people counter for this: depending on the entrance, a sensor or a camera with AI that evaluates directly in the device and recognises people, not faces. From in and out, occupancy is derived live. Data leaves the camera only as counts, encrypted via mobile network to the portal. There they are available live and over time, by hour, day and period. At festivals, events and trade fairs, the values give a view of inflow and outflow. The figures can be exported or passed on at any time. Counting is permanent or temporary, for example only for the duration of an event. If you also use the PARQ parking system, for example as a municipality, people counting is also possible free of charge. How many counters are needed depends on the number of entrances and exits.

  1. 1Counting in and outAbove each entrance and exit, everyone crossing the counting line is counted, separately for in and out.
  2. 2Sensor or cameraWhich counter fits depends on the entrance. Both evaluate in the device and recognise people, not faces.
  3. 3Live occupancy with warningYou see live how many people are currently present, across all entrances combined. When your maximum number is reached, you get a warning, for example at events.

People counter with sensor or camera

Sensor above the entranceA sensor from above recognises people, not faces, and counts who goes in and who goes out.
Camera with AIThe camera detects what crosses the counting line and in which direction. The AI computes directly in the device; only counts leave the camera.

Use

Towns & festivalsMeasure visitor flows at festivals, markets and in town centres, and plan entrances and staffing accordingly.
Events & trade fairsKeep an eye on inflow and outflow live, and manage capacities and routing accordingly.

Would you rather count vehicles?

Traffic counting records cars, HGVs, bicycles and e-scooters by camera with AI, separated by vehicle type. Like people counting, it is a standalone service, with no parking system required.

Questions about people counting.

Above each entrance and exit, depending on the entrance, a sensor or a camera with AI does the counting. Both evaluate in the device and recognise people, not faces. In this way they detect who crosses the counting line and in which direction. From this it follows how many people come in, how many leave and how many are there at the moment.

No. Evaluation takes place in the device; only counts go to the portal. Nobody is identified. Sensor and camera evaluate only in the device, so no personal data goes to the portal.

Yes. You see live how many people are present, across all entrances together. If the number reaches your maximum, you receive a warning, for example at an event or at a town festival on a busy Saturday. You set the limit yourself and change it at any time.

At festivals, events and trade fairs, inflow and outflow show live when it gets busy. In town centres, this lets you follow visitor footfall. The values can be exported or passed on to your own systems.

Yes, that is possible. If you also use the PARQ parking system, for example as a local authority, people counting can be included free of charge. Just ask us about it.
