Overview
Canon’s Crowd People Counter is a video content analysis software that quickly and accurately counts hundreds or thousands of people on-screen at any given time. This software works with all Milestone compatible cameras capturing occupancy counts for use cases such as events, stadiums, airports, train stations, city planning, houses of worship, and other large gatherings.
Features
Count Crowds with High Accuracy
- Crowd People Counter’s video content analysis technology utilizes deep learning technology for highly accurate human detection. This includes dense crowds, people who are overlapping, and people who are very small due to distance.
- Detects people facing any direction for great accuracy using standard surveillance camera angle of view.
- Select up to four detection and non-detection areas to gather counts in different areas of the video stream.

Use Scenario Examples
- Sporting Events
- House of Worship
- Concerts
- Stadiums
- Transportation Hubs
- City Planning

1 - This is the server with the Crowd People Counter Analysis Software installed. Retrieves the video from the Milestone XProtect Server, and counts the number of people in the video. The analysis results are accumulated into this server.
2 - This is the PC with the XProtect Smart Client and the Crowd People Counter Setting/Viewer Software installed. This PC performs operations such as setting and executing the count and checking the analysis results.
Web API
- Easy to develop Web applications with Crowd People Counter’s Web API. This is made possible by the WebAPI sending an HTTP request to the Analysis server, which receives the current count results as an HTTP response in a JSON format.
- Ideal for large scale deployments and integration into the end-user’s software solution.

Web API - Development Example

Displaying Transition of Number of People on the Web
Display count results as a graph.
e.g. Display count results as a graph by a web browser which can be referred to by any device (smart phone etc.)

Outward Communication of the Congestion Status
Publish count results to outside users.
e.g. Remote access to administration counter, airport ticket counter, etc. enables users to check the congestion status in real-time using smart phone or tablet.
