Extra Info
Advanced 3D Analytics for Accurate Counting
The Axis P8815-2 uses dual image sensors with stereo vision to capture a true 3D representation of the area below. Unlike traditional 2D counters that rely on shape or heat signatures, this model maps object height and direction, dramatically improving accuracy—especially in crowded conditions or with groups walking closely together.
Real-Time Data for Smarter Decisions
Thanks to its built-in analytics, you get instant access to real-time people flow data. This allows businesses to make decisions on-the-fly—whether adjusting staffing, planning store layouts, or measuring campaign effectiveness.
Privacy-Safe Monitoring
Since the unit doesn’t record recognizable video, it's fully compliant with strict data privacy requirements. This makes it ideal for environments like retail stores, libraries, healthcare facilities, or anywhere visitor tracking is needed without capturing personal details.
Seamless Integration
Whether you're using Axis Store Reporter, third-party business platforms, or video management systems, this device integrates effortlessly using an open API. This makes it easy for system installers and IT teams to build scalable analytics solutions.
