What is a bus & transit automatic passenger counting (APC) system?

The bus and public transportation automatic passenger counting (APC) system is a complete solution. Automatic passenger counting is mainly used to automatically record the number of passengers on public transportation and automatically upload the information data to the software platform in real time through the data storage device. The system uses sensors and computer algorithms to detect passengers entering and leaving and record the number of passengers.

Passenger Counting Solution for Bus have integrated counting sensors, data processors, 3D/AI cameras, and other core technologies to achieve comprehensive monitoring of passengers getting on and off the bus in an intelligent way (you can choose whether to equip this function) and statistical recording. Its core functions include passenger counting, data recording and data analysis, etc.

Through high-precision sensors and camera equipment, the Automatic passenger counting system can count the number of passengers getting on and off the bus in real time and accurately, and record the key information such as the time and location of passengers getting on and off the bus in detail.

These data are of great reference value to public transportation operators. They can be used to optimize vehicle scheduling plans, adjust bus routes and station settings, and evaluate the service quality and management level of the bus system. In addition, the APC system can also provide real-time passenger number information to help passengers plan their own travel plans, etc.

Highlight company's HPCM002/HPCM588, 3D/AI Automatic passenger counting system is an automatic passenger boarding and alighting counting system developed using image analysis and neural network deep learning algorithms. It consists of a data box and a camera. The 3D/AI passenger counting camera is installed above the bus door, shooting real-time images vertically downward, and transmitting them to the data box (controller) through cables for image processing, so as to accurately identify the number of passengers getting on and off the bus at different doors, or the number of people getting on and off the bus at the same door. According to different user needs, the current number of passengers in the bus can also be counted in real time. The data box has built-in GPS+4G transmission, which can upload statistical data directly to the cloud, or share data with third-party systems through communication interfaces.

Our APC system also has the following advantages:

1: Built-in image anti-shake algorithm, strong environmental adaptability.

2: Counting accuracy is not affected by passenger body shape, clothing color, hair color, hat, scarf and other factors.

3: Counting accuracy is not affected by passengers walking side by side, crossing, or blocking.

4: Support remote viewing of videos shot by cameras or video playback on the "Tongtianxing" platform.

5: The switch status of the bus door is used as the trigger condition. When the door is opened, the counting starts and the data is counted in real time. When the door is closed, the counting stops.

6: It has strong scalability and portability and can be customized according to different user needs.

7: It is not affected by seasons, weather, human shadows, and external light. The automatic light compensation function is activated at night to keep the recognition accuracy unchanged.

8: It supports secondary development and docking with third-party systems.

9: It supports local upgrades or OTA upgrades.
