The precise recording of passenger numbers is essential for transport companies - it helps to optimise timetables, make better use of capacities and organise local public transport more efficiently. A modern solution for this is camera-based passenger counting. Intelligent image processing systems automatically and precisely record how many people board and alight - without any manual counting.

With Adigo nPax, the Norwegian company Adigo Mechatronics has developed such a system especially for ferries. The required images are supplied by an industrial camera from IDS Imaging Development Systems GmbH. But how exactly does this technology work, what advantages does it offer and where is it already being used?
