2.How passenger counting works
AI-powered stereo vision detects and classifies passenger movements in real time.
Door opens
Door status signal received.
Passengers board or alight
P3D detects direction and counts.
Counts linked to stop & vehicle data
Timestamped and associated.
Data transmitted to Vision360
Live reporting and analytics.
Insights for better decisions
Plan services and improve experience.
3.Passenger classification & origin-to-destination insights
P3D classifies passenger types and provides OD data to understand travel demand.
- Adult
- Child
- Wheelchair
- Pushchair
- Bicycle
- Large luggage and other objects
Where supported by installation and operating conditions.
