People counting camera system
2023-01-31
Counting cameras are currently an ideal solution for shopping malls and other facilities that have to handle several entrances to the building, while controlling the number of people inside. It will also work well in the case of mass events, when a limit of people is specified in the zones
The system built of cameras, monitors and software can automatically count people and display statistics by handling all inputs/outputs simultaneously. The advantage of using the system is undoubtedly the centralized counting of people entering the facility. There is no problem here where several people serving different entrances have to communicate in order to know how many people are currently inside. Statistics are visible in real time on monitors that can be mounted at the entrances. Using the recorder, in addition to the current input handling, we receive aggregate statistics from the entire system operation time.
Remote service
Modern alarm systems have the ability to operate the control panel via the application or via SMS commands. The system is able to inform us on an ongoing basis about any change in the status of the control panel, alarms or faults. In addition, we can remotely disarm or arm the alarm.
Current alarm systems are increasingly used to build home automation. Due to the availability of a large number of extensions and modules on the market, we are able to control roller shutters, heating, a garage door system or a garden sprinkler system using the alarm system. All of the above-mentioned possibilities can be easily controlled using the manipulators or via the smartphone application.

Jak działają kamery do liczenia ludzi?
Entrance and exit counting cameras have two image sensors adapted to motion detection. The software dedicated to counting people, based on the function of an artificial intelligence algorithm, counts passing people with high accuracy even when there are several people in the entrance at the same time. To count people during configuration, a virtual line is drawn that defines the entry and exit zone. The camera must be installed centrally above the place where people will be counted. It can be an entrance to the building, a corridor, a staircase or a designated queue to the service point. Information about the number of inputs and outputs is displayed directly on the camera preview, the image stream itself can also be recorded using the recorder. The camera also allows you to generate daily, weekly, monthly or quarterly reports. This will allow you to determine on which days or even hours the peak of visits falls. Statistics shown in graphs and charts are clear and allow for advanced analysis. Importantly, the algorithm is not stimulated by other objects, thanks to which the calculations are precise. You can also set the height of the object, which the camera can approximately determine. So we may not include children entering the facility.
People counting system at mass events
The limits of the permissible number of people staying on the facility apply during each mass event, and it is the organizer's responsibility to comply with them and ensure that they are not exceeded. If the event is ticketed, the problem is partly solved because we know how many people bought tickets. For open events, you need an automated solution with high accuracy. Hikvision cameras are perfect for this task. The constantly improved algorithm counts people precisely, and the appropriate configuration will also allow you to avoid an error that may be caused, for example, by the movement of security officers guarding the passage. The cameras can work in low light so you don't have to worry about the system working after dark. Counting all inputs can be added up in real time. If there is such a need, a counter showing the current number of people inside can be installed in designated places. The reports will allow you to accurately determine the number of people staying at the facility also after the end of the event.
