## The Challenges Every Transit Operator Faces

Transit agencies need reliable, real-time data to manage networks effectively — but outdated counting methods leave critical gaps that affect operations, planning, funding decisions, and passenger experience.

01

### Crowded Vehicles, No Visibility

Without real-time occupancy data, operators can’t anticipate overcrowding or redistribute capacity before passengers experience poor service.

02

### Fare Evasion Going Undetected

Comparing ticketing data against actual passenger counts reveals evasion hotspots — but only when counting data is accurate and automated.

03

### Poor Network Usage Knowledge

Planning decisions made without reliable origin-destination data lead to misallocated resources, underserved routes, and wasted capacity.

04

### Manual Data Collection Burden

Manual counts are expensive, infrequent, and inconsistent. By the time data is processed, the operational window to act has already passed.

05

### Complexity of Data Processing

Raw counting data from multiple vehicles and routes is difficult to consolidate, visualize, and act on without the right software infrastructure.

06

### Reporting & Compliance Pressure

Funding bodies, regulators, and transport authorities increasingly require documented ridership data — delivered on time and in standard formats.

The Solution

## Introducing 2FLOW — A Complete Passenger Counting Ecosystem

2FLOW is a complete, turnkey passenger flow intelligence system designed to adapt and evolve with your network. From hardware at the door to cloud-based analytics dashboards, every component is purpose-built for public transit.

As the authorized North American distributor and integrator of Webreathe technology, Smart Sensor Solutions brings this proven European platform to Canadian and American transit agencies — with local project management, installation support, training, and ongoing technical assistance.

![Webreathe 2FLOW complete passenger counting system — 6 components: on-board hardware, data interconnection, secure cloud server, SaaS analytics software, deployment support, and R&D expertise](https://www.smartsensrsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Webreathe-APC-2Flow-scaled.webp)

📡

### Complete On-Board Hardware

AI-powered counting cells (Eyes 3) and a cloud-connected transmitter (Brain) installed above vehicle doors. Plug & play, compact, certified to railway standards including EN50155.

☁️

### Secure Cloud Data Infrastructure

All counting data is encrypted, aggregated with GPS positioning and timestamps, and sent in real time to a secure cloud server. Internal backup stores up to one year of data on-board.

📊

### CARE — SaaS Analytics Dashboard

The CARE platform turns raw counting data into actionable intelligence — live occupancy maps, historical trends, route performance comparisons, anomaly alerts, and compliance reports. Accessible on any device.

🔌

### Open API Integration

Optional APIs (DATA, DATA RT, IV) allow counting data to feed third-party platforms — MaaS apps, passenger information displays, BI tools, and national transport data repositories.

🇨🇦

### North American Integration by Smart Sensor Solutions

We handle the complete project lifecycle for North American operators — site surveys, hardware procurement, installation coordination, system configuration, staff training, and ongoing local support. You get European technology precision with local accountability.

🎯 Hardware — Counting Cell

## Eyes 3 — AI-Powered 3D Counting Cell

The smallest transit counting cell ever designed. Eyes 3 uses 3D stereoscopic technology — like the human eye — to perceive depth and reconstruct a precise 3D image of each passenger crossing the doorway. Accuracy exceeds 98% on 1,000 crossings in either direction.

Powered by AI with automatic self-optimization, Eyes 3 distinguishes adults, children, wheelchair users, strollers, and cyclists — and ignores U-turns to avoid false counts.

Accuracy

\>98% precision

Resolution

4K · 3D stereoscopic

Dimensions

92 × 38 × 31 mm

Operating Temp

\-25°C to +70°C

Standards

EN50155 · CE · IP64

MTBF

\>1,000,000 h at 35°C

## Precision You Can Count On

Eyes 3 uses 3D depth perception to distinguish individual passengers even in dense, fast-moving crowds. Unlike infrared break-beam sensors that count any interruption, Eyes 3 tracks the full three-dimensional movement of each person through the door.

![3D depth-sensing precision — Webreathe Eyes 3 stereoscopic AI technology reconstructs a 3D image of each passenger for over 98% counting accuracy](https://www.smartsensrsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/3D-vision-counting-cell-with-over-98-accuracy.webp)

3D stereoscopic depth perception — counting precision exceeding 98%

Technical Advantage

Eyes 3 achieves a minimum counting precision of **98% on 1,000 crossings** in each direction. Algorithms further correct residual errors by differentiating between cumulative ins and outs — delivering the most accurate passenger data available on the market.

🧠 Hardware — On-Board Computer

## Brain — Cloud-Connected On-Board Calculator

The Brain is the intelligence hub of the 2FLOW system. It aggregates counting data from Eyes 3 cells, combines it with GPS positioning and timestamps, and transmits it in real time to the cloud via 4G LTE. It also functions as a service gateway for other on-board systems.

Miniature in size but powerful in function — the Brain enables remote maintenance, software updates, SIM sharing, and seamless integration with SAE, SIV, and ticketing systems already on board.
