People Counting System Market Dynamics

DRIVER: Increasing adoption of people counting systems to track marketing effectiveness

According to the World Federation of Direct Selling Association (US), the global retail industry was worth USD 186.1 billion in 2021. Retailer stores are reimagining their offerings to target in-store and online consumers, so e-commerce is not separate from retail. Hence, we can observe the steady growth in retail sales in the figure given below. Retail stores primarily emphasize parameters that help them gain good profit, offer enhanced services to all departments, increase footfall, improve customer loyalty and satisfaction, improve safety and security, align the staff to their tasks, and maintain sufficient stock.

RESTRAINT: Growing privacy threats owing to installation of video-based people counters

The utilization of video cameras for surveillance and the implementation of video-based people counters pose certain risks. Technologies adopted for facial recognition, along with mood, age, and gender recognition, for advanced social monitoring through personally identifiable information, such as economic factors, cultural and ethnic identifiers, mental and physical health, and geographic location, create risks. The use of live facial recognition (LIR) technology in other than crime prevention and detection applications violates the individual's right to privacy. Some metrics that are safe to record include dwell time, footfall/visitor volumes, the distinction between adult and child, and path patterns.

OPPORTUNITY: Growing installation of people counting systems in workspaces

Its utilization in retail stores, museums, sports complexes, galleries, and libraries has significantly benefited businesses and organizations.

These systems also identify overused or underused spaces and give insights into space optimization. They also help improve HVAC efficiency, occupancy management, staffing adjustments, etc. Thus, they help save rental costs and manage floor space efficiently.

CHALLENGE: Differential store metrics limit effectiveness of video-based counters

The most widely used people counters which offers high accuracy is video-based people counters. These counters are available in technologies such as 2D, 3D, or 4D. Video-based people counters are capable of providing surveillance to larger ranges, however, differential store metrics have restricted the efficiency of video-based people counting systems in particular spots, such as areas impacted by shadows, changing light levels, and complex backgrounds, which is expected to affect the accuracy of a video-based people counting system.
