AI-powered object detection and counting in any defined area. People, vehicles, industrial parts — or any custom-trained object. From smart city management to factory production lines.
Point any IP camera at the area to monitor. Define zones in software. Choose what to detect. Metrici does the rest — continuously, in real time.
Use any existing IP camera overlooking the area. No additional hardware, no sensors, no cabling changes required.
Define one or many virtual areas directly on the live camera image. Each zone has its own detection rules and thresholds.
Select what Metrici should detect — people, vehicles, or any custom-trained class. Multiple types can run simultaneously per zone.
Every zone change is recorded with photo and timestamp. Alerts fire instantly via popup, email, SMS or hardware signal.
Area Counter covers classic detection for people and vehicles — and extends to any object through custom AI training.
Count vehicles at intersections, detect congestion in virtual zones and flag illegal parking — without any road sensors.
Monitor sidewalks, crossings and squares. Count people waiting at traffic lights. Detect overcrowding before it becomes dangerous.
Detect available and occupied spots from a single overhead camera. Works as a Parking Place Detector without per-space hardware.
Flag vehicles or people entering in the wrong/closed area. Instant alert with timestamped photo witness.
Measure waiting time at traffic stops, toll booths or bus stations. Trigger actions when queue exceeds a threshold.
Connect cameras across an entire city. Heat maps and motion maps reveal activity patterns and guide urban planning decisions.
Track how many people enter, transit and dwell in a store. Compare foot traffic to sales to measure conversion rates.
See which areas attract the most activity over time. Optimise merchandising, displays and promotions with real data.
Alert staff when checkout queues exceed a set count. Track average waiting time per zone across hours and days.
Detect when a shelf or display is empty or nearly empty. Trigger restocking alerts before customers notice shortages.
Enforce capacity limits in offices, meeting rooms or public spaces. Alert when a zone exceeds its defined cap.
Export reports by day, week and month. Measure effectiveness of promotions and layout changes with real detection data.
Alert the moment a person or vehicle enters a restricted zone — even at night or in low light, without any physical barrier.
Detect unattended bags left in a zone beyond a configurable time limit. Critical for airports and public transport hubs.
Verify workers in a zone wear helmets, vests or harnesses. Trigger an alarm when required PPE is absent in a high-risk area.
Guard perimeters, substations and restricted sites. Photo witness saved for every unauthorised presence event.
Count occupants per ride capsule or event zone. Cross-check against tickets sold. Enforce safety limits automatically.
Monitor stadiums and concerts for overcrowding. Trigger early warnings before dangerous density thresholds are reached.
Detect defective parts, missing components or wrong-position items on a conveyor. Stop the line before defects accumulate.
Count pieces produced per shift, per operator or per station. Build real-time dashboards without any manual counting.
Verify that the right part is on the right tray or mold before the next production step. Prevent costly downstream errors.
Count items loaded at docks, detect wrong loads, verify palette integrity including foil wrap completeness.
Track material types loaded into trucks. Record events with GPS coordinates for precise route and load invoicing.
Classify and count boats in and out. Monitor docking spot availability. Measure vessel length using AI-based algorithms.
Count objects on production line or in store on the shelf. Inspect quality and number. Raise alerts
“Anything the human eye can see and distinguish — Metrici can be trained to do it too.”
Metrici’s deep neural network can be trained on any visual class. If a camera can capture it, Metrici can learn to detect, count, classify and alert on it — with production-grade accuracy tailored to your specific environment.
See Examples & Get InspiredDetects each Ferris wheel capsule individually and counts the people inside, ignoring those outside. Reports clients per capsule, per turn and per day — enabling direct comparison between actual occupancy and tickets sold.
From your specific need to a production-ready detection engine — Metrici handles the full pipeline.
Describe what Metrici must detect, count or classify in your environment.
Images of every object class are gathered in real conditions — your actual lighting, angles and environment.
Metrici annotates the dataset and trains the deep neural network on your specific object classes.
The model is validated on live footage. Edge cases are added iteratively until accuracy targets are met.
The trained engine runs on your server. Detection starts immediately — 24/7, with full event logging.
Detection, alerting, analysis and reporting — built into one platform accessible from any device, anywhere.
Define as many virtual areas as needed per camera. Each zone independently monitors objects type with its own rules and thresholds.
Built-in detection engines ready to deploy for standard retail, traffic and security scenarios — no custom training required.
Email, SMS, popup notification, LED hardware signal or audio alarm. Configurable per zone, per object type and per threshold.
Accumulate detection data into visual maps showing where activity concentrates over time. Essential for retail, urban planning and security analysis.
Draw a zone. Count objects crossing it in. Track in/out flows for rooms, parking lots or any bounded area.
Measure how long an object stays in a zone. Alert when a person, vehicle or item persists beyond a configured time limit.
Every detected event is saved with a timestamped photograph. Full audit trail available for review, export or investigation at any time.
Scheduled or on-demand reports by camera, zone, object type and time range. Automatic delivery by email. Export to XLS or PDF.
Sends event data via POST to any external system — ERP, access control, BMS, LED displays or custom management software.
