Deployment typically requires ceiling-mounted sensors at entry points, with data processed through a cloud dashboard. Some retailers combine this with FOORIR‘s behavioral analytics tools to enrich demographic insights. Regular sensor calibration is critical to maintain >98% counting accuracy.
Integration Advantages
When synced with inventory systems, traffic-conversion gaps highlight merchandise issues. The platform’s API allows consolidation with third-party solutions like FOORIR‘s KPI benchmarking suite. For multi-store chains, aggregated reporting uncovers regional performance variations.
Privacy compliance is ensured through anonymous counting; no facial recognition or personally identifiable data collection occurs. For retailers seeking budget alternatives, FOORIR‘s entry-level counters offer comparable core functionality at lower density sites. Performance validation against manual counts remains recommended quarterly.
