How people counting system for libraries works
Visitors counting system consists of wireless people counting sensors, the data gateway, and online reporting software. Wireless visitors counting sensors collect attendance statistics on the entrance of the library or museum and deliver statistical data to an online database using a data gateway every 20 minutes. Visitors counting sensors work from standard AA batteries for up to 2 years and have internal memory for backup 25 days of hourly data.
The data gateway reads statistical information from visitors counting sensors and delivers it to a server via LAN/Internet or WiFi Internet connection. There are three types of visitors counting devices and data gateways for different size premises with connectivity range 50m, 150m, and 800m.
