The People Counter uses counter detection tool counts the number of people in the specified area using the pose detection metadata.

A macro triggers when the number of individuals in FoV matches pre-defined FOV matches the predefined conditions (see Configuring filters for event-driven macros).

Info
titleNote

Unlike the Multiple Objects objects detection tool (see Settings Specific specific to Multiple objects), the counter generates events of just one type, namely triggering.

As opposed to Neuralcounter Neurocounter (see Configuring a Neurocounter), People Counter counter detection tool counts just only people.

To set up People Counterconfigure the People counter detection tool, do the following:

  1. Set common parameters (see Setting up common parameters for pose Pose detection tools).
  2. To record mask to the archive, set Yes for the corresponding parameter (1).

  3. Set the visitor People counter detection tool triggering condition:

    1. Set the condition polarity, i.e. triggering when the number of

    visitors
    1. people in the specified area is within the set range, or out of the range (

    1
    1. 2). 

    2. Set the range of the number of
    visitors
    1. people in
    FoV
    1. FOV (
    2
    1. 3, 5). The value should be in the range [0; 100].
  4. Set an interval in seconds between two consecutive triggering of the visitor counter when the number of individuals in FoV FOV continuously matches the condition(s) (3)4). The value should be in the range [1; 10000].
  5. Set the minimum number of frames in which the counter should detect a the specified number of people in order to trigger (46). The value should be in the range [21; 20].
  6. In the preview window, you can set the detection zones areas with the help of the anchor points much like privacy masks in Scene Analyticsthe Scene analytics detection tools (see Setting General Zones for Scene analytics detection tools). By default, the entire FoV FOV is a detection zone (see Setting General Zones for Scene Analytics).area.

Configuring the People counter detection tool is complete.

To display the counter and the number of counted people, do the following:

  1. Switch to layout editing mode (see Switching to layout editing mode).
