1. Battery-Powered Sensors for Remote Areas
Battery-powered wireless visitor counters are ideal for places with no infrastructure. SensMax SE and DE sensors can work up to two years on one battery set while storing all counting data inside the device. The data is easily exported to a local PC and analyzed with SensMax EasyReport software, which generates clear daily, weekly, or monthly charts — no internet required.
Typical use: forest paths, national park entrances, campgrounds, beaches.
2. Radar-Based Outdoor Counting
For real-time and anonymous people counting in outdoor environments, SensMax offers radar sensors that detect motion direction and speed without any camera. This ensures privacy-safe visitor counting and reliable operation in all light and weather conditions. They can be mounted on poles or walls and used at entrances or open spaces.
Typical use: open-air museums, park gates, pedestrian streets, and recreational areas.
3. Mobile Network Data Transmission
Where mobile coverage exists but power or internet lines do not, wireless 4G people counting systems send visitor data directly to the SensWeb cloud platform. Managers can access real-time visitor statistics, compare multiple sites, and receive automated reports remotely. When combined with a solar kit, the system operates fully autonomously without any maintenance visits.
Typical use: large parks, outdoor exhibitions, or coastal promenades requiring live visitor information.
4. Solar Power for Full Autonomy
The SensMax SPS20 solar power kit supplies continuous energy for TAC-B radar sensors. Solar panels recharge the internal batteries, allowing autonomous people counting all year round — even during cloudy days. This makes it possible to install systems far from any electricity source and let them run unattended for months.
Typical use: mountain trails, remote beaches, or long cycling routes equipped with radar sensors.
5. Real-Life Outdoor Examples
National Park Trail
A standalone visitor counter was installed at the start of a hiking route between two wooden posts. It records how many visitors enter and leave the trail, helping park rangers plan maintenance and report usage trends through EasyReport software.
Open-Air Museum
At a heritage site where cameras are restricted, a radar sensor measures visitor and cyclist flow in all weather conditions. The anonymous data helps managers adjust staffing and organize events based on real attendance.
Beach Entrance
A solar-powered 4G radar counter automatically uploads hourly visitor data to the SensWeb cloud. Local authorities use these real-time visitor insights to manage cleaning, parking, and services according to actual attendance.
Protected Nature Reserve
In a remote reserve, a battery-powered sensor quietly collects long-term visitor statistics. Researchers export the data to EasyReport and compare human activity with wildlife observations to support environmental protection programs.
6. Data Analysis Tools
SensMax offers two methods for analyzing collected statistics: SensWeb Cloud for 4G-connected systems and EasyReport software for standalone counters. Both provide clear charts showing daily activity, peak hours, and seasonal trends — helping operators make data-driven decisions for better site management.
Some words from us
Counting visitors in places without power or internet is simple with SensMax. Modern outdoor visitor counting systems — including standalone, radar, and solar-powered options — deliver accurate and anonymous data wherever it’s needed. These autonomous people counting solutions are already helping parks, museums, and municipalities across Europe understand how public spaces are used and make smarter decisions.
