Home of Overhead Counters

Overhead Video Counters have become considerably less expensive, more accurate, and more reliable over the years. We Count People is committed to give our customers a range of products that meet their technical and financial needs. Please contact for guidance in what solution may best fit your facility.

Typical Overhead Counter Accuracy

With the TotalCounterOH, if two people walk through side-by-side, they will be counted as one. If a group of people walk through at the same time, it is unlikely that all of them will be counted. On a single door entrance, most people enter one at atime, so the counting accuracy is typically very high (93 to 95%). But on a double door entrance, the accuracy will quickly drop to 80 to 85% or lower depending on traffic patterns.

This issue does not exist as much with the TotalCounterVideo (typical 95%+ accuracy) or the IP Connected Dual Video Counter (typical 97%+ accuracy).

Why Collect Hourly Counts?

When we are consulting with our customers and helping them decide which people counter best meets their needs, we often here the question that goes something like, ‘why would I want to spend extra money in order to know how many people came in each and every hour?’.

TotalCounterOH

The TotalCounterOH is not a video counter - but is included here because it does install above the entrance. Some of our customers are okay with the lower accuracy of the TCOH because it is installed out of the way of children, sends its counts to a remote display, and is relatively low cost. If two or more people enter/exit at once, they will be counted as one. So on a single wide door - the typical accuracy is 92 to 95%. But as the entrance gets wider - the accuracy can drop to 80 to 85% or lower. But the unit is easy to install - easy to use - and low cost.

The TotalCounterOH is priced at $299 plus shipping.

TotalCounter Video

This is a single-lens video counter with onboard report software. Typical accuracy is 95% even with groups. Run a standard Ethernet cable from the display to a nearby PoE network port and use Internet Explorer 10 Web Browser software to view hourly, daily, monthly and yearly IN and OUT counts at your PC. The included software will let you view basic reports and export the counts to Microsoft Excel. Typically used on single door, and double door entrances.

The TotalCounterVideo counting solution is priced at $499 plus shipping.

An excellent choice for single doors, double wide entrances, very wide entrances, multiple entrances in one building and multiple locations.

Pricing starts at $999 plus shipping for the sensor plus a year fee for the cloud based software and reporting subscription.
