Automatic Passenger Counting and Information System To Replace Manual Checkers.

Automatic passenger counting systems are electronic machines for counting the number of passenger that board and leave at every stop. These systems have replaced schedule checkers that were previously used to manually collect ridership information. Unlike schedule checkers, automatic passenger counting and information systems collect ridership for every single trip operated. Automatic passenger counting and information systems are cost effective as it costs less to collect ridership information via APC units than it does to hire employees for manual collection. Passenger information system is an electronic information system which provides real time passengers information. This includes the predictions about arrival and departure times of transport means.

Automatic passenger counting provides more accurate information than the conventional manual counting method as sensors are used to provide gross level of ridership. Although high initial cost is the major challenge inhibiting the market growth, especially in the price sensitive emerging economies, relatively quick return on investment is expected to subdue the impact of this challenge in the coming years. The installation of automated counting system is one of the major priorities in the developed economies like North America and Europe owing to its capabilities that enhance transit time efficacy and helps to resolve passenger’s complaints quickly.
