Privacy-sensitive people counting and analytics

Occupancy detection with Blickfeld’s people analytics solution enables venues like cinemas, concert halls, or sports arenas to efficiently distribute visitors without needing human oversight. By detecting which seats are taken and which are not, spectators can be automatically guided toward open seats.

For events like fairs or open-air festivals, people counting systems enable operators to monitor crowd density, prevent overcrowding or unsafe situations, and comply with regulations. Analyzing how visitors move is also valuable for understanding the interests of different target groups and allows organizers to make informed decisions that enhance the visitor experience. 

Airports, train, or bus stations are locations that live from efficiency while also seeing movement of huge crowds every day, hour, and minute. To ensure travellers’ safety and convenience, Blickfeld’s LiDAR solution enables automated passenger counting and provides insights into people’s movements. Based on this data, measures can be taken to shorten wait times or reroute people flows. 

Tourist destinations like beaches, ski resorts, theme parks, and attractions are increasingly affected by overtourism. The influx of large numbers of visitors not only leads to overcrowded parking lots and threatened ecosystems but also to resentment among vacationers. Blickfeld’s people counting technology provides anonymous crowd analytics data that can serve as the basis for systems displaying capacity in certain spots and suggesting less crowded alternatives. This can make recreational activities more enjoyable for both visitors and residents while also protecting the environment.
