Panasonic Industry has launched a new member of its Grid-Eye sensor family featuring a 90° lens delivering a wider field of view (FoV) and reducing the number of sensors required to cover a given area to enable people counting and tracking applications. Privacy conscious designers have appreciated the 64 pixel resolution of the Grid-Eye family, and the Grid-Eye 90° will enhance systems designed to track and count the movement of people tracking as well as other applications.
With the launch of Grid-Eye 90°, system designers can capture the IR signature of a larger area, leading to fewer sensors required to cover a given area. This leads to CapEx improvements deploying people tracking/counting devices in indoor environments.
