Draw a virtual line across any camera view. Metrici counts everything that crosses it — vehicles, people, products, boats — in real time, 24/7, with no hardware sensors needed.
Two complementary engines for two different questions. Often deployed together.
Tells you how many objects crossed a line in a given time interval — and in which direction. A vehicle drives through a gate, a person walks past a doorway, a product moves down a conveyor. Each crossing is recorded as a discrete event with direction, class, timestamp and photo.
Tells you how many objects are present in a zone at any given moment — and alerts when that number changes. A parking lot fills up, a restricted area is entered, a conveyor zone is empty. The event fires when occupancy changes, not when something crosses.
No sensors, no rewiring, no special cameras. Just software and a view.
Point any existing IP camera at the area to monitor. Works with any brand: Axis, Hikvision, Bosch, Dahua and more.
Click to draw one or more virtual counting lines anywhere in the frame. Each line is independent with its own object type and rules.
Choose what to count: people, cars, trucks, bicycles — or any custom-trained object class. Multiple types per line are supported.
Every crossing is logged with direction, class, photo and timestamp. Reports are generated automatically — hourly, daily or on demand.
From a single shop door to a city highway — Line Counter adapts to any scenario.
Count vehicles per lane, per direction, per hour. Know exactly which lanes carry the most load and when.
Distinguish cars, trucks, vans, motorcycles and buses. Each class counted and logged separately for precise traffic analysis.
A crossing in the unexpected direction triggers an instant alert with photo. Critical for one-way roads, exits and restricted lanes.
Count people crossing a zebra or intersection. Monitor waiting time and crossing volume per time slot.
Calculate vehicles per minute or hour on any road. Trigger congestion alerts when flow drops below a defined threshold.
Monitor every lane and direction simultaneously. Multiple counting lines across a full carriageway from a single overhead camera.
Count exactly how many people enter and exit a store, branch or venue. The foundation of any footfall analytics programme.
Compare passers-by on the street with actual entrants. Calculate conversion rate per hour, per campaign, per day of week.
See peak hour patterns over weeks and months. Schedule staff to match real demand, not guesswork.
Monitor each entrance, floor and zone independently. Aggregate to total visitor count in real time across an entire mall.
Count customers entering, measure dwell time at service windows, optimise staffing and queue management with real data.
Count vehicles entering the forecourt vs using the pump. Track throughput and peak times across a full day.
Count how many items pass a point on a conveyor per shift, per hour, per operator. No manual tally sheets needed.
Verify that the correct number of items are boxed or palletised at each station. Alert when count falls short.
Count trucks entering and leaving a depot or warehouse. Log each crossing with timestamp for logistics documentation.
Count and classify each garbage load as they pass a virtual gate. Record events with GPS for accurate invoicing.
Count and classify boats entering and leaving a marina through a virtual gate. Know total flow in and out across the day.
Count fabric rolls moving along a production line. Measure production speed and generate shift productivity reports.
Count citizens entering public offices, courts or service centres. Track peak demand periods and optimise staff allocation.
Monitor passenger flow through gates, corridors and check-in areas. Identify bottlenecks before they become queues.
Count attendees entering through each gate. Verify capacity compliance. Generate post-event attendance reports automatically.
Accurate visitor count per hour and day. Feed real-time numbers to digital displays. Export for grant reporting and planning.
Count passengers boarding and alighting per platform. Measure flow through corridors in real time.
Count guests passing through ride queues and attraction entries. Cross-check with ticket sales for operational insight.
A complete counting and analytics platform — not just a counter.
Define as many virtual counting lines as you need on each camera. Each line operates independently with its own direction rules and alert thresholds.
Every crossing is counted in both directions separately. Know exactly how many went left and how many went right — or in and out.
Every single crossing is saved with a timestamped photo of the object at the moment of crossing. Full evidence trail, always.
Set a count limit for any line. When reached, trigger an alert via email, SMS, popup notification or hardware signal (LED panel, buzzer).
Hourly, daily, weekly and monthly reports. Automatically sent by email on a schedule. Export to XLS or PDF for further analysis.
Real-time view of all counting lines across all cameras from a single interface, accessible from any device anywhere.
Push live count data directly to a Metrici LED Display panel — show current occupancy or flow rate to staff and customers in real time.
Send crossing events via HTTP POST to any external system — ERP, BMS, parking software or custom dashboards.
Not counting people or vehicles? Metrici can be trained to count any object: products, boxes, animals, boats — with a dedicated DNN training for your environment.

Line Counter integrates natively with other Metrici engines for more complete deployments.
Counts objects present inside a defined zone at any moment. The natural complement to Line Counter — often deployed on the same camera.
