Smart cameras using Tinker Board are capable in these scenarios
People Counting in Retail Stores
Retail stores are dynamic environments with ever-changing customer behavior, so people counting is vital for retailers. It lets them know the exact number of total visitors, visitors who made purchases and the optimal staff-to-customer ratio to maximize customer satisfaction.
People Counting in Libraries & Museums
Libraries and museums rely on government funding. In order to receive necessary grants, they need to be able to accurately measure visitor numbers. People-counting data makes this possible, enabling libraries and museums to receive their government grants accordingly.
People Counting in Airports
Airports are among the busiest and most dynamic places in the world. The most important aspect for airports is to allocate staff accordingly, so people-counting information is crucial for them to know exactly how many people arrive and leave as well as the number of people at security checkpoints.
People Counting in Supermarkets
A supermarket’s goal is to turn all visitors into frequent buyers. With people-counting data, supermarkets can know how many visitors they get and how many they converted into buyers. People-counting information also helps with staff allocation to maximize customer satisfaction.
People Counting in Shopping Malls
Shopping Malls draw lots of visitor traffic, not only for shopping but also for entertainment. With people counting, malls can see which areas are most crowded and attractive to visitors, allowing them to shape their marketing attractions and plans accordingly.
People Counting in Events & Exhibitions
Events and expos are important opportunities for businesses to make lasting impressions and present products and services. With people counting, sponsors and owners can know the exact number of visitors, peak hours and the staff allocation needed for the number of visitors.
