Monitoring Indoor Attractions Visitation

Title

Description

We are monitoring BOOST's ‘heart rate’! What you see on the large screen is not a simulation, but accurate, real-time data on the flow of people in this building, captured by our autonomous sensors installed at the main entrances. We are demonstrating live how a low-cost, energy-efficient hardware solution can monitor crowds with over 97% accuracy, without any video cameras and with a total guarantee of anonymity (GDPR) — a key concern for any manager today.

The beauty of this hybrid technology (which combines passive and active sensors to save battery power) is that it is designed to operate in remote or sensitive locations without power or Wi-Fi: imagine having this level of control at the Belém Tower, on the steps of the Regaleira Initiation Well, or along the walkways and seawalls of Oeiras and Cascais. The system adapts to everything from nature trails to historical monuments, allowing you to manage load capacity and safety in real time. I invite you to see on the dashboard how we are managing the flow of the event right now.

What if BOOST itself became a living laboratory for Smart Tourism? Throughout the event, we will demonstrate a smart people flow monitoring solution based on discreet sensors installed at key access points to the building. In real time, a visual dashboard displays entrances, exits, and occupancy levels, allowing us to understand how the public moves throughout the day—anonymously, without cameras, and fully GDPR compliant.

This technology is highly versatile and can be applied in a wide variety of contexts, provided there is controlled or naturally limited access: exhibition halls, museums, monuments (such as the Tower of Belém, Jerónimos Monastery, or the Regaleira initiation well), nature trails, walkways, or promenades such as those in Oeiras or Cascais. For DMOs, heritage managers, events, and public spaces, this demo shows, in real operation, how crowd monitoring can support decisions about safety, comfort, load capacity, and sustainability—transforming people's movements into actionable data at the right time.
