  • Page 3: Solution Overview

    AXIS People Counter AXIS People Counter is an analytic application that you can install on a network camera. You can use the application to count how many people pass through an entrance, in what direction they pass, and if more than one person passes during a predefined interval.
  • Page 4: What's The Difference Between Axis People Counter And Axis P8815-2 3D People Counter

    • AXIS People Counter recognizes objects that move in the field of view and identifies them as people based on their overall size and movement. AXIS People Counter is suitable for most scenarios, covering single as well as double door entrances.
  • Page 5: Get Started

    • As a rule-of-thumb, the camera covers an area as wide as the camera’s mounting height. For details about a specific camera model, see the Camera selector for AXIS People Counter • After installation, the covered area can be increased depending on the camera’s zoom setting.
  • Page 6 AXIS People Counter Get started • If you install the application before you install the camera, you can use the counting area indicated in the live view to position the camera. The counting area should go from left to right, perpendicular to the path where people cross.
  • Page 7: Find The Device On The Network

    Loitering people or large objects that sway slightly could interfere with the counting. Find the device on the network To find Axis devices on the network and assign them IP addresses in Windows®, use AXIS IP Utility or AXIS Device Manager. Both applications are free and can be downloaded from axis.com/support.

    For areas with more than one entrance, you need to install cameras with AXIS People Counter installed at each one. You connect the cameras to each other, and assign the primary occupancy role to one of them and the secondary occupancy role to the other ones.
  • Page 15 The occupancy application automatically detects when the occupancy area is open or closed by observing the flow of visitors. Consequently, full-day analysis also means that the primary camera only sends statistical data once a day to AXIS Store Data Manager. Smart and naive occupancy mode You can run the occupancy estimation in either smart or naive mode.
  • Page 16 AXIS People Counter Configure the application Naive occupancy mode If you select the naive occupancy mode, the application estimates the occupancy by counting “people coming in” minus “people coming out”. This estimation is not as sophisticated as the smart occupancy mode, and the occupancy error accumulates over time.
