Draw The Screen's Viewing Area

On a DOOH Audience Meter camera, draw the area from which people can see the screen, and the detection area outside which nobody is counted.

DOOH Audience Meter counts the people who could see a screen and those who look at it. You draw where that is in step 3 of the camera flow (Add a Camera and Draw). The checklist beside the picture asks for:

  • The screen’s viewing area (required): where people can see the screen.
  • Detection area (optional): people outside it are not counted.

Step 1: Draw The Viewing Area

Drawing step with the Add a zone tool marked 1, the viewing area on the picture 2, the zone type set to Screen viewing area 3 and its name 4
  1. Select Add a zone.
  2. Click the corners of the floor from which the screen can be seen, usually wider further from the screen, then select Finish the shape.
  3. Set the zone type to Screen viewing area.
  4. Give it the screen’s name, for example “Atrium LED 2”. The overview and reports use it.

Step 2: Draw The Detection Area

Drawing step with the detection area on the picture marked 1, the zone type set to Detection area 2 and the checklist 3
  1. Draw a zone around the part of the picture where people should be counted at all, for example the floor without a passage behind a glass wall.
  2. Set its zone type to Detection area.
  3. The checklist ticks both items.

Step 3: Review And Save

Review step with the shapes marked 1 and the Save the camera button 2
  1. The shapes: the viewing area and the detection area.
  2. Select Save the camera.
