FAQ
Software Questions
How do I aggregate counts across many stores?
One deployment covers every store whose cameras route back to it. Counts are aggregated automatically and available per store, per region, or chain-wide.
Is licensing per store or per camera?
Per camera. A store with two counted entrances and one queue zone is three licences.
How long is footfall data retained?
As long as you configure. The data is on your servers; ARSA does not hold it.
Does it identify individual shoppers?
No. This module counts and tracks anonymous shapes. No face templates are created and returning individuals cannot be recognised.
How far can one camera count people?
Line counting needs 113 pixels per metre at the person, up to 14.7 m on a 2 MP camera with a 60-degree lens; queue length needs 99, up to 16.8 m. A higher resolution sensor or a narrower lens extends each distance.
How much does people counting software cost?
$35 per camera per month, billed annually, or $1,040 per camera as a perpetual licence with optional Care at 18% a year from year 2. There is a four-camera minimum, and model updates and support are included.
