Using 3D LiDAR sensors, the PeopleCounter (PeCo) SensorApp enables users to maintain recommended occupancy levels in manufacturing settings as a means to continue to slow the spread of Covid-19.
Due to the sensor’s four layers, it can clearly establish people’s directions of movement, while monitoring the use of a defined zone. All recorded data is then output digitally, as a means to properly track the maximum amount of people allowed in a given space.
Every person is identified by using his or her contours, so only people taller than 4 feet and 7 inches are counted, and every other object is blanked out. And, by using a variety of sensors at once, users can also cover large areas like DCs and warehouses, even if they have various entry and exit areas.
The LD-PeCo is based on proven time-of-flight technology from SICK. An invisible double laser curtain detects persons walking through it. The direction of passage is determined, allowing unambiguous numbers to be provided. The LD-PeCo is easy to install, offers accurate counting and is maintenance-free. Unlike conventional counting technology, counting of persons with the LD-PeCo is possible at very high mounting positions. Fixed structures within the counting area can be blanked. In contrast to camera technology, the number results are not impaired by external factors, large numbers of people, or shaded areas in the field of view.
