What is Age Estimation?

With our latest generation of 3D sensors, we are taking demographic analysis to the next level.
Thanks to the built-in AI module, the sensor can automatically estimate the apparent age of visitors with an accuracy of over 90% and classify them into clear age categories.
This age estimation technology provides an objective picture of visitors and demographics, based entirely on what the sensor observes. This gives you new, reliable KPIs that help you understand visitor profiles and trends much more accurately, without manual counting or guesswork.
