This HR sensor is the first of a new class of devices using advanced video AI processing. The sensor is taught to recognise humans (HR) from general background motion. Applications are safety warning, intruder detection, and activation by humans only.
The HR sensor is based on a camera with WiFi connection, set thru a simple smartphone app. It needs a network connection for setup and monitoring, but can operate independently if necessary. The app sets activation area, degrees of human discrimination, and notification schedules.
A unique feature is the relay output that can control an automation system directly, making integration simple wiring. Technology may be complex but the installation could not be simpler. A smartphone app can stream the video live and receive detection notifications.
The sensor is available in black or white. The sensor is supplied with flush and surface mounting, for fixing to a vertical surface, or underside of a horizontal surface. Both allow 2 dimensional alignment.
Recognising humans in a risk zone is an ideal application for the HRS. It provides non contact protection from moving gates and barriers, as well as providing early warning of vulnerable people iapproaching a gate or barrier.
The slideshow shows a gate with HR protection. The detection area is within the red lines set up on installation. When the gate is closed, the view beyond the gate is all but obscured becuse of the camera mounting height. The HRS can still protect people entering the property.

The HRS needs to be set for a N/C contact which prevents the automation running if interrupted.
HRS as a presence sensor
HRS can be used on automatic door as an activation device. Recognising a person approaching a door can be an efficient energy saving device for automatic building and shop entrances.
The sensor needs to focus the detection area near to the door because the recognition has no cross traffic rejection.
It is recommended to place the sensor in the centre of the road. The presence sensor range is within 2m, so metal gates (steel in particular) need to be 2m away at all times if they are not to interfere with vehicle detection. A wooden gate will not affect the sensor, but any automation fitted to a wooden gate should be at least 1m from the sensor.
This would be a game changer for additional safety in public places but for the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation). However the HRS does not have a fixed video feed for recording equipment so does not include
The HRS is an autonomous people sensor. Use of external equipment to identify people, or record them may be a breach of privacy, so the device is sold as a standalone sensor with no ability to recognise an individual.
The sensor is available in black or white. The sensor is supplied with flush and surface mounting, for fixing to a vertical surface, or underside of a horizontal surface. Both allow 2 dimensional alignment. Mounting height affects range. If the sensor is high pointing down, cropping helps select the detection area. Humans are less detectable at angles less than 30° from vertical. Max installation height is 6m. We recommend 2.5m to 3.5m..Cameras have a short cable with a 4 way line connector.
