How HoxtonAi sensors work
HoxtonAi sensors use computer vision technology to monitor people entering or leaving a space.
The sensors are placed above doorways and entrances. The onboard camera anonymises all images on-device — blurring faces and personal data — before uploading the anonymised images to the HoxtonAi Cloud. No personal information ever leaves the device.
Cloud processing
In the cloud, HoxtonAi's algorithms use artificial intelligence to process the anonymised images — detecting and tracking people across a counting line to generate a count of "Ins" and "Outs" for the entrances being covered. The images are then deleted.
This data is then reported to our informative dashboard in near real time for our clients to use. The dashboard can be viewed on any mobile, tablet or computer with internet connectivity.
Occupancy monitoring
If all entrances and exits are covered within a space, the sensors can be used to provide live occupancy of that space. Alerting can also be provided if the occupancy exceeds user-defined thresholds.
