Counting
People
People by A.I. Tech is an AI-powered application designed to count individuals passing through virtual sensors configured on a camera’s video stream at gates or entrances. Ideal for crowd management, security, and analytics.
Functions
Virtual Sensors
Each virtual sensor allows people to be counted along a single crossing direction, or along two opposite, collinear crossing directions. Multiple sensors can be used to analyze more than one area of the scene for enhanced accuracy and coverage.
Customise Events
Construct custom events linked to the counting data and use them to start altering a space's lighting, temperature, and other features based on how occupied the area is. Cut down on energy expenses and a building's carbon impact.
Counter
Each crossing direction of the sensor is associated with a counter value that shows the total number of people counted by the sensor along the considered direction. The counter value is cumulative and refers to the moment the sensor was configured, although it can be reset.
Visualise Data
Monitor events and metrics through an intuitive, easy to use dashboard. Collect, aggregate, analyse and display the events generated. Create custom maps and insert plans of a site to view the real-time occupancy of an area.
Occupancy of an area
Sensors can be placed at an entrance way to determine the occupancy of an area. When used in conjunction with our Dashboard the collected data from multiple sensors (multiple entrances) can be combined. This is particularly useful for understanding the total occupancy of a lecture theatre, shared office space or airport waiting lounge.
Functions
The application can be used both indoors and outdoors with an indoor accuracy rating of 98%. The application differentiates between humans and objects and does not count trolleys or backpacks. In addition the app detects U turns or swerving to avoid a double count.
Integrations
The events generated by the video analysis applications can be notified by e-mail, with the possibility of attaching a sequence of images with the metadata related to the event of interest.
FTP
Notifications can be sent to FTP servers (e.g. FileZilla, IIS), storing for each one a CSV file and a sequence of images with the metadata relating to the event of interest.
HTTP
A.I. Tech offers maximum integration with standard HTTP and HTTPS services. Notifications can be received by customizing requests to REST or CGI services to control remote devices (e.g. for PTZ handover mechanisms) or in JSON format, attaching one or more images to the event of interest on any third-party server.
UDP /TCP
The metadata associated with the events generated by the A.I. Tech can be received via text strings over configurable UDP / TCP protocols, such as those sent by POS systems.
MODBUS
A.I. Tech plugins can forward alarm notifications using the Modbus TCP protocol, according to the specifications outlined by the IEC 61158 Standard.
MQTT
A.I. Tech plugins can forward notifications using the publish-subscribe MQTT protocol, according to the specifications outlined by the ISO/IEC PRF 20922 standard.
ONBOARD
A.I. Tech also offers mechanisms to notify events of interest directly on board the device that processes the images. It is in fact possible to activate, through applications, the digital outputs on the AI-Appliance, the digital output of the Hanwha cameras and the notification mechanisms of the Axis cameras.

Common Functions
of A.I. Tech Apps
Tampering
If your camera does not have this functionality, don't worry. All apps can generate when tampering events occur.
PTZ Handover
Do you need to control a PTZ camera when an event occurs? With the ability to trigger a sequence of HTTP calls, you can bring the camera to the desired pre-set, start the PTZ tracking (if available on the camera) and bring the PTZ camera back to the home position after a configurable amount of time.
Activation on a time basis
Apps can be activated on a time basis, only in specific time intervals, e.g. from 9 p.m to
8 a.m. In addition, for server or embedded apps, it is also possible to specify the day (e.g. Monday from 10am to 12pm., Tuesday from 6pm to 10pm.).
Masking
In all apps masking of moving objects can be activated, in order to be compliant with all kinds of privacy requirements.
AI-Dash-Embedded
This is the app's built-in dashboard, which allows you to have the data for the specific camera at your fingertips at all times ( even on camera, if you have an SD card).

​
Dynamic activation via software
In addition to time-scheduling, you can activate your apps dynamically, through software calls, via HTTP GET requests that allow you to operate in two modes: impulsive and level-based. In the first case you have a single START request and the app will remain active for a certain predefined amount of time. In the second case, you have one START request and one STOP request to control the app.
