The number of people counting sensors required is dependent on the height of the ceiling and the width of the entrance. One device is sufficient in most cases. This calculator will help you to determine the number of cameras.
No, for the trial, we are using FootfallCam cloud server. After the trial, if you would like to have the software in your own server, we can help you to do the installation during the rollout. At that time, you just need to give us any of your server access, then we will help you to install it. All the data will be centralised in the server, therefore you can access all the data for all your stores via the web link.
During the trial, we will prepare an account for the user within our FootfallCam Analytic Manager and provide the web link for the user to access their data.
Our software will support multiple counters and the counts from different counters can be combined in our web-based reporting software. You can combine the counts of the 2 counters and view the total traffic IN and OUT or you can view the total IN and OUT individually.
Yes, you can setup a FTP location for the raw data to send to the dedicated location every day. The user also can choose to look at the branch by different time period and look at each individual camera separately. Using our API, we can query the data directly from the counter.
You may subscribe to our newsletter through the bottom of the webpage.
The Footfallcam control panel is available in 9 different languages and we are constantly expanding. The languages availabled are English, Chinese, German, Dutch, French, Spanish, Italian, and Persian.
The counting program is run on the device. The device is merely a data collector, all calculations and aggregation of the data collected is done via our software.
We are compliant with the current privacy regulations and work towards further compliance and upholding of the privacy of individuals. Under the GDPR regulations introduced in 2016 and implemented on May of 2018, there are several exceptions that applies to responsible manner of handling the data, such as anonymisation.
Footfallcam People Counter have been successfully installed in various crowded spaces such as retail stores, shopping malls and art centres with proven customers' satisfaction and records of good counting system.

We understand your concern about if the company went into liquidation, our source code is store in Escrow service, our software will continue to run under any circumstances and the source code will also available from Escrow service.
Yes, the server of the system will still continue to work. We could port the software to your local server.
Footfallcam would not be capturing the people’s face. Therefore, it would not count via facial recognition. The counting would be based on the people’s body shape. In compliance with the GDPR policy released in May of 2018, we cannot provide demographic details such as age, or gender.
FootfallCam is not suitable for the installation at pop-up stores or within kiosks in shopping malls. This is due to the kiosk having no clear definite entrance. There will be no indication on when a customer enters the "store" or leaves the "store" as there is no one way entrance, and visitors are allow to enter and leave from all different directions.
Currently, it is not feasible yet.
Yes, FootfallCam is able to capture demographic data by using our AI video analysis system. This system reuses your existing CCTV cameras in the store (please note that the CCTV cameras have to be installed front-facing to customers’ face to determine their gender, age) and connects to FootfallCam Centroid at your back office.
This is not needed as we do not collect any personal data or any personally identifying data of any specific visitor, we merely collect the counting data in counts along with hashed MAC addresses.
For 3D counting, we only need to determine the amount of traffic that come into the store. Video recordings are not taken for this purpose. The 3D image processing is done within the device, where it then produces a count. The counts are only in text format that is being recorded and transmitted to the server to produce footfall reports.
For the Wi-Fi counting, all data are processed instantaneously from within the FootfallCam people counter prior to being sent to the FootfallCam server. On the device, all personal data collected are hashed on the counter level and the only result that is sent to the FootfallCam server are hashed MAC addresses (not the real MAC addresses).
Yes, it has been security tested.
Our counter is not located inside the washroom and it will only allocated at the top of the washroom’s entrance to track the people counting so the privacy of others is protected. So far, we have not received any security issues raised by our clients who are using the washroom management solution.
You may customise the information that you want to send to the cleaner for their action. An example of the message sent to the cleaner is “Toilet touchup required at Floor3ZoneAF 50 people visited in last 5 hours”.
FootfallCam Analytics Manager is a web-based control panel. So, any device with access to a web browser will be able to login and access the data.

The FootfallCam 3D Mini™ can connect up to 50m with a clear line-of-sight; and it can cover 20-30m in a noisy office environment.
The FootfallCam 3D Mini™ can be mounted either on a wall or a ceiling, so it does not require any wall brackets.
It will work in the same way as the 3D Max, whereby it will upload the data to the software in real-time, and then update the live occupancy display.
The average data transfer rate for each FootfallCam 3D Mini™ (to the FootfallCam 3D MAX™) is 5 kilobytes per hour, given that there is a pre-defined a sample size of 20 requests per hour.
The time-of-flight principle is based on measuring the time it takes for a wave to travel from a source (a time-of-flight sensor) to an object and back. Based on that data – as well as some knowledge of maths and physics (such as wave propagation) – you can establish the distance of that object from the source.
FootfallCam 3D Mini is using Time-of-Flight counting technology and it’s suitable for indoor environments which are not subjected to strong sunlight. It comes with the following pros and cons:
It is web-based, you can access anytime at any PC/ mobile device with the given username and password. Of course the default password can be change for the security purpose.
