Why People Counter Matters

A people counting solution is designed to accurately track and analyze foot traffic in physical spaces. By collecting data on how many people enter, exit, or move within a location, businesses and venues can optimize space utilization, improve staffing efficiency, allocate resources, and enhance the overall visitor experience.

Featuring different technologies, Milesight people counters provide comprehensive data on people passing and visitor behaviors. Our devices can be strategically placed in entrances, exits, corridors, and specific zones to monitor high traffic flow. They are widely used in retail stores, shopping malls, offices, museums, exhibition centers, and other facilities to support data-driven decision making.

You May Want to Know

How does Milesight ensure data security and privacy, especially in regions with strict regulations like GDPR?

Milesight people counters are fully GDPR compliant with necessary certifications to validate it. We use technologies like ToF, 3D stereo vision, and PIR, which are inherently anonymous. Our devices do not capture, process, or store any personally identifiable information (PII) such as facial features.

What technologies do Milesight people counters use?

Milesight people counters employ multiple technologies to ensure precision and performance across different scenarios:

  • Time-of-Flight (ToF): Captures depth data with infrared light to accurately detect and count people, even under changing lighting conditions.
  • 3D Stereo Vision: Two lenses capture stereoscopic depth data to calculate precise body position and count people even in crowded environments.
  • Passive Infrared (PIR): Detects motion through body heat, ideal for occupancy monitoring and energy efficiency applications.

How many people counters do I need for my project?

Milesight people counters support an installation height range from 1.9m to 15m. The coverage area varies with height. For example, a single unit of VS125 can cover up to 10.43 x 6.02 m² at a 6m height. We provide an calculator tool to help you precisely plan sensor placement for optimal coverage in your specific layout.

Why choose wireless people counters for large or complex spaces?

Wireless people counters do not require extensive wiring, so installation is faster and causes less disruption. They preserve existing building structures and lower renovation costs. Milesight people counters scale to cover large venues such as malls, airports, and office buildings without the constraints of wired systems.

Can Milesight people counters work in low-light and dark environments?

Some models are designed to operate in low-light and dark environments. For example, the AI ToF sensors (e.g. VS133/VS135) rely on depth sensing for accurate counts without visible ligh, while the built-in IR illumination of VS125 ensures full accuracy even in complete darkness.
