Hella launches advanced people counting for public transportation

Hella says its APS-90 and APS-180 advanced people sensors are highly dynamic stereoscopic cameras with sufficient on-board computing power to bundle precise image processing and feature-rich application software in a new, appealing design. With their 3D imaging, low-light sensitivity and very short latency, the cameras are suitable for a wide range of people-counting applications and security solutions in any lighting conditions. The APS-90 is capable of monitoring an area up to 20m2, while the APS-180 can

226 Hella says its APS-90 and APS-180 advanced people sensors are highly dynamic stereoscopic cameras with sufficient on-board computing power to bundle precise image processing and feature-rich application software in a new, appealing design.


With their 3D imaging, low-light sensitivity and very short latency, the cameras are suitable for a wide range of people-counting applications and security solutions in any lighting conditions. The APS-90 is capable of monitoring an area up to 20m2, while the APS-180 can monitor an area up to 64m2.

Both provide coverage of multiple counting points with a single device and the company says they offer 98% accuracy even in crowded areas. Both deliver separate results for adults and children as well as classification and suppression of false counts of non-human objects.

Features include Wi-Fi and Bluetooth scanning, wireless data transmission and access to the web-based configuration tool, as well as synchronous recording of video and motion data, proprietary software to view video and motion data and offline verification of counting accuracy and behavioural data.

    Machine vision - cameras for intelligent traffic management
    For some, machine vision is the coming technology. For others, it’s already here. Although it remains a relative newcomer to the ITS sector, its effects look set to be profound and far-reaching. Encapsulating in just a few short words the distinguishing features of complex technologies and their operating concepts can sometimes be difficult. Often, it is the most subtle of nuances which are both the most important and yet also the most easily lost. Happily, in the case of machine vision this isn’t the case:

By 2025 almost 60% of the world’s population will live in urban areas and in those cities there will be an estimated 6.2 billion private motorised trips every day. In order to manage this level of traffic growth, traffic management centres (TMCs) will need to both increase their monitoring capabilities and be able to detect traffic problems quickly, efficiently and r
