Executive Summary

  • Agereh Technologies Inc. has launched HeadCounter, a battery-powered, wireless AI device that delivers real-time, anonymous passenger flow intelligence, movement tracking, and simultaneous body temperature monitoring for transportation hubs.
  • The system is engineered for rapid deployment in complex indoor and outdoor environments (e.g., concessions, hallways, Jetways) and operates on public/private cellular networks with up to one year of battery life or continuous plug-in capability.
  • The launch addresses critical industry needs for operational efficiency, safety, and commercial revenue optimization as global passenger traffic exceeds 9.5 billion annually and retail/dining services now represent 40-50% of airport revenue.
