The MaxiTherm is a people counting device
with the imaging optics, sensor, signal processing and interfacing electronics
all contained
within a molded plastic housing. The unit is used in a
downward looking manner, with an unhindered view of the target area. The unit
functions optically, seeing the heat emitted by people passing underneath as
infrared radiation, through a germanium lens with a 60-degree field of view. The
sensing area is a square on the floor whose width is approximately equal to the
mounting height; at 3.5m the unit 'sees' a 3.5x3.5m square on the floor.
Mounting height ranges from 2.5-4.5m can be covered with the standard lens.
Sensors with 40 and 20 degrees fields of view offer increased mounting heights.
