Green Light for Safe Distancing

How, in the present situation, do I help customers and employees in stores, restaurants, government offices or hospitals to maintain a safe distance and thereby reduce the risk of infection? How, without additional personnel, do I gain a clear and transparent view of customer footfall – now and in the future! By means of the People Counter, that’s how. The system uses digital sensor technology to count the number of people who enter and leave a room or a building. The IoT solution’s traffic signal system indicates when the maximum permitted number is reached. If the number is exceeded it emits a warning signal or notifies a member of staff. Store proprietors and building managers maintain a long-term overview of footfall via a Web dashboard. Employees and customers are protected and additional personnel costs are not incurred.

The People Counter regulates entry to shops – simply and digitally

That’s a green light for hygiene: Deutsche Telekom's people counter controls the flow of retail customers.

Your benefits with the People Counter in overview

Reduced Infection Risk for Customers and Employees
The People Counter ensures that the maximum permitted number of persons in a room is not exceeded. Employees are no longer needed to control access at the entrance. Visitors can feel safe.

Precise Registration of Visitor Numbers
Automatic access registration makes it clear at all times when and how many people are in the store or restaurant. So personnel deployment, for example, can be planned more efficiently.

Low Price, Calculable Costs
High cost of extra personnel at the entrance is no longer incurred. The initial cost of investing in the full package (sensors, connectivity, access to the IoT platform, analysis software and installation) is recouped on average within the first two or three weeks.

Data Protection and Data Security
The IoT solution relays footfall numbers to the Cloud securely by gateway and the wireless network. Personal privacy is ensured at all times; no personal data is collected.

Use Cases for Every Industry

The People Counter counts everybody who enters or leaves a building. Green means access is permitted and red means that any further access will trigger a warning signal. Employees can also be notified by an app. The maximum permitted number of people in a room is no longer exceeded.
Examples from different industries:
- Restaurants & Cafés
- Hairdressers & Fitness Studios
- Hospitals & Care Homes
- Banks & Public Authorities
- Museums & Concert Halls
The People Counter records footfall in retail stores and relays the data to the Cloud for analysis.
The solution visualizes footfall by time of day and day of the week so that owners can plan with greater precision how many employees are required at which times and the best times for them to fill shelves or work in the stockroom.

The light barrier indicates when the maximum number of people in the store has been reached and short red phases control the visitor footfall. Faults or blocking of the light barrier is also signalled.
