APS-R Sensor

The APS-R, including the Power over Ethernet model APS-R-POE, is designed for accurate counting in a wide range of public passenger vehicles, including trains, trams and subways.

Xovis' APS-R enhances usability, maximizes emerging remote connectivity options, and automates a number of procedures that previously required manual intervention, resulting in installation, commissioning, and operational costs lower than those associated with traditional Automatic Passenger Counting (APC) units. 

  1. 1

    Power over Ethernet (PoE)

    Power over Ethernet (PoE) limits costly cabling work and network interference by combining data and power supply in a single wire. Reduced cabling costs contribute to the low Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) that has made the APS-R-POE, the APS-R model with POE, one of the most preferred in the public transportation industry. 

  2. 2

    Simple integration and interoperability

    APS-R automatically detects installation height and angle, provides automatic software and configuration updatesand can be adapted for use with stairs and ramps. Interoperability specifications ITxPT and VDV-301 (IBIS-IP), RESTful APIs and many other IT protocols are standard on all APS sensors, ensuring seamless integration and easy connection into any IT infrastructure.

  3. 3

    Object Detection

    Object Detection, a feature on the APS-R-series sensors, provides operators with accurate counts about the number of objects, such as wheelchairs and bicycles, onboard their public transportation vehicles. 

  4. 4

    Monitoring zone occupancy

    Realize advanced use cases by monitoring the occupancy level of certain areas. The APS-R automatically detects if a designated area is occupied., regardless of whether the space is filled by luggage, bicycles or passengers. Object Detection features can be combined to determine if it is a bicycle or wheelchair in the designated space. 

  5. 5

    VDV 457-compliant accuracy

    Sensors can fulfill the accuracy requirements defined by the Verband Deutscher Verkehrsunternehmen (VDV), ensuring highest passenger counting accuracy up to 99%. 

  6. 6

    Digital counting validation

    Save time and money with validating accuracy with digital validation of passenger counts. Comparison counting triggered via door signal and validation reports count events and metadata.
