Irisys

Irisys is a UK-based company specializing in people-counting technology and queue management solutions. Founded in 1998, Irisys develops and manufactures infrared-based thermal imaging sensors and software used to accurately count and track people in real-time. These systems are designed for applications in retail, transportation, banking, and other industries where understanding customer traffic patterns and optimizing operational efficiency is crucial.

Irisys systems utilize passive infrared (PIR) technology to detect the heat signatures of individuals, differentiating them from inanimate objects. This technology allows for accurate counting even in challenging lighting conditions or crowded environments.

The data collected by Irisys sensors is typically analyzed using proprietary software, providing insights into key performance indicators (KPIs) such as store occupancy, dwell times, queue lengths, and service times. This information can be used to optimize staffing levels, improve store layout, and enhance the customer experience.

Irisys offers a range of products and solutions tailored to different needs, including overhead people counters, thermal imaging cameras for queue management, and software platforms for data analysis and reporting. The company has a global presence, with installations in numerous countries around the world.
