Plan event measurement ↗Outdoor pedestrian counter for streets, parks and plazas
Nano Outdoor is V-Count’s outdoor pedestrian counter for high streets, parks, plazas, campus gates and event entrances. Its 3D stereo vision counts people walking in both directions with up to 99% accuracy, in an IP65 weatherproof housing, and it keeps counting at night.
Counts go to BoostBI, where you see traffic by hour, day and location and can compare several outdoor sites. For retailers, outdoor pedestrian counting is most useful next to an entrance count: a Nano Outdoor outside the shop front plus a Nano AI at the door gives your capture rate, the share of passers-by who walk in.
Parks, plazas and event teams can use the same hourly counts to plan around real peaks. If you are comparing pedestrian traffic counters, check that each one counts both directions, keeps working in rain and darkness and reports by location, then test it against a manual count at your own site.
