Peak-season crowding on narrow paths and at viewpoints created real safety risk with no reliable numbers to act on.
A scenic area manages peak-season crowding with real-time visitor data
Gate and path counting on XCORE-16 boxes feeds a live capacity dashboard, triggering one-way routing before paths and viewpoints become unsafe.
Project snapshot
The essentials at a glance.

| Scale | 7 monitored zones · live capacity dashboard |
| Hardware | XCORE-16 |
| Key algorithms | People Counting & Flow, Crowd Density Estimation, Intrusion Detection, Riverbank / Water Edge Intrusion |
The challenge
What the site was dealing with before deployment.
Protected heritage areas suffered damage from visitors stepping off designated routes.
What we deployed
The configuration and how it was rolled out.
- Counting lines installed at the main gate, path junctions and viewpoints on XCORE-16 appliances.
- Density estimation feeds a live capacity dashboard used by the operations room.
- Thresholds trigger one-way routing, gate throttling or staff dispatch before a zone becomes unsafe.
- Virtual boundaries protect restored heritage areas, with water-edge detection around the lake.
Results
Measured outcomes after go-live.
- Crowding incidents fell 45% across two peak seasons.
- The operations team now manages flow proactively with numbers instead of radio reports.
- Heritage-zone trespass events were reduced to near zero.
Solutions used in this project

Guard rivers, reservoirs, canals and pools with AI that reacts when a person enters danger.
View solutionMore case studies
PPE and zone protection across a 45-camera auto-parts plant
A tier-1 automotive supplier deployed XCORE-16 boxes to enforce helmet and vest rules and keep workers out of robot cells, replacing manual patrols.
Eight metro construction sites unified under one safety dashboard
A metro contractor rolled out 260 cameras on XCORE-32 appliances, combining PPE detection, danger-zone alarms and face-based labour attendance.
34 unmanned substations protected without adding guards
Intrusion, fire-smoke and loitering detection on XCORE-16 appliances turned remote substations into monitored, self-reporting sites.
