Discover featured applications
mmWave sensor family provides precision and accuracy for occupancy detection and people counting applications.
Our mmWave solutions for occupancy detection/ people counting enable 3D detection and tracking of multiple people or objects with precise position, velocity and angle information. Simplify solutions by ignoring non-moving objects such as chairs and tables and filtering clutter from moving objects such as fans, curtains or blinds.
- Detection and tracking of people indoors up to 14 m and outdoors up to 100 m
- Object classification to reduce false detections and triggers
- Fine resolution to distinguish objects with minimal spacing (less than 50 mm) for accurate people counting
