What is Pointgrab?
Non-intrusive solution – images are never transmitted or stored on the sensor
The sensors detect people’s presence, locations and numbers, and send analytics data to the CogniPointTM Management System over a secure, encrypted network connection.
All of the image processing is done on the sensor itself, the sensor does not store or output images, and has no interface to extract images, so privacy is fully protected. The sensor will only transmit the analytics data to the cloud management system.
As the sensor tracks peoples’ movement rather than personal devices (e.g. mobile phones), it is completely anonymous.
In the screenshot, you can see how the coordinates of the people arrive at Pointgrab? These are transmitted to the Workplace IoT platform as "2 people within detection range of sensor”.
Which types of data can be tracked with Pointgrab?
Using Pointgrab sensors, you can track following types of data:
Setting up Pointgrab as a Headcount sensor
Occupancy: is a location used or not?
Utilization: how many people are in this room?
2. Setting up Pointgrab as a Footfall sensor:
Footfall (in & out): how many people are walking over a (virtual) traffic line?
How often is data captured?
The sensor will check every 15 sec – 1 minute for coordinates, the data is uploaded into the Workplace Cloud every 1 min: this interval is so low that a person in the room will be captured.
