Tilted-view, ceiling-embedded AI camera for people counting, visitor-flow analytics and privacy-conscious commercial insight.
ZKDigimax DG05-PC52 people counting camera provides a compact, tilted-view AI solution for organisations that need practical insight into how people move through commercial spaces. Designed for ceiling-embedded installation, it combines passenger-flow counting with body-based analytics to help retailers, supermarkets, venues and high-traffic sites understand entries, exits, pass-by activity and attention patterns. NZTeco can help scope a suitable deployment and integration for your site.
The DG05-PC52 uses a 5MP starlight CMOS sensor and a 2.1 mm lens to monitor an effective counting area of up to 10 m × 12 m. Its tilted-view design is intended for installations between 2.0 m and 6.0 m high, giving project teams a useful option where a conventional top-down sensor is not the best fit. Three-frame WDR support helps the camera cope with scenes that include bright entrances, glazing or variable indoor lighting.
For day-to-day operations, the camera can support entry and exit monitoring, pass-by analytics, attention and heat-map analysis, body capture, feature extraction and body-attribute analysis. These tools can help store managers compare footfall across zones, assess the effect of a display or queue layout, and make more informed staffing or merchandising decisions. ZKDigimax states accuracy of at least 95% in standard scenarios; final performance depends on camera placement, site conditions and configuration.
The DG05-PC52 supports pedestrian detection, tracking, optimal-body selection and person re-identification. ZKDigimax describes the analytics as fully offline and states that no biometric identifiers such as facial features are collected. That makes the product a considered option for projects seeking people-flow intelligence without relying on facial-recognition workflows. Every organisation remains responsible for assessing its own privacy, notice and data-governance obligations before deployment.
Installation is streamlined by either DC 12 V power or IEEE 802.3af PoE, alongside a 10/100 Mbps RJ45 network interface. The camera provides dual H.264/H.265 compression and can stream at up to 2560 × 1920 at 25 fps, with a secondary 1280 × 720 stream at 25 fps. ONVIF, RTSP, RTP and RTCP support give installers flexible options when integrating with compatible video-management or analytics platforms.
At just 54 mm in embedded diameter, the DG05-PC52 is designed to sit neatly in the ceiling while retaining a practical commercial operating range of -20°C to 70°C. For a broader solution, explore ZKDigimax people counting and analytics products, or contact NZTeco to discuss project requirements, availability and installation planning.
People-counting projects work best when the camera is positioned around the decision that needs to be measured. That may be a shop entrance, a passage between departments, a promotional zone, a service counter or the approach to a queue. During planning, consider the permitted mounting height, the shape of the intended coverage area, likely travel directions and sources of glare or shadow. A well-designed view helps distinguish passing traffic from genuine entry and exit activity, and produces data that is easier for operational teams to act on.
NZTeco can assist with selecting the most suitable ZKDigimax analytics device for the environment and confirming whether the DG05-PC52 is appropriate for the available ceiling position, network approach and reporting objective. This keeps the solution focused on usable commercial insight rather than simply adding another camera to the site.
