People Counting Single Tripwire
The People Counting Single Tripwire Rule counts the
number of people entering and/or exiting an area
based on a tripwire line drawn across the field of view
of the camera. A single tripwire allows for accurate
counting of pedestrian traffic entering a given area.
The strength of this rule is that it only requires the
Analytics engine to monitor a person crossing one
tripwire, reducing possible points of failure. This rule
is ideal for areas where all of the pedestrian traffic is
meant to be counted.
In this example, any traffic travelling through this area is
considered to be entering or exiting the store.
