Automatic passenger counting for bus, tram & rail

01 — The 2FLOW chain

From the doorway to the decision, without a break.

One single chain, designed and built by WEBREATHE: the sensor counts, the computer transmits, CARE understands, the APIs distribute. No outsourced link, no lost data.

01EYES 3 AI

Capture

The smallest on-board counting sensor: >98% certified accuracy, passenger classification, origin-destination.

02BRAIN · WEBOX

Transmit

Road and rail on-board computers: GPS, 4G, encrypted data, native ITxPT. Position is reported every 3 seconds.

Boardings / hour

03CARE

Understand

Ridership, occupancy, alerts, origin-destination, fraud: the software suite that makes your flows readable, in real time, from a browser.

{ "line": "4",
  "occupancy": 60,
  "lat": 50.63, "lng": 3.02,

04APIs

Distribute

API·DATA for your BI tools and open data, API·IV to inform your passengers: position and occupancy of every vehicle.

02 — The 2FLOW solution, eight building blocks

Designed, built and operated by a single company.

From the counting sensor to the study of your network, 2FLOW brings together eight building blocks: hardware, integration, hosting, CARE software, APIs, monitoring, support and studies office. WEBREATHE designs and masters each one of them.

01 · Hardware↗

EYES 3 · BRAIN · WEBOX

The world's smallest on-board counting sensor, with 3D vision and embedded intelligence, backed by the BRAIN and WEBOX computers: over 98% accurate, rugged from −25 °C to +70 °C, made in France.

02 · Integration↗

CAD/AVL, ticketing, passenger info

Counting data feeds your CAD/AVL, driver consoles, ticketing, passenger information and data aggregators, over on-board IP.

03 · Hosting↗

Cloud or physical server

Your data hosted in the cloud or on your own server, in line with your security and sovereignty requirements.

04 · CARE software↗

CARE

Dashboards, real-time map, history, alerts and O-D matrices; 100% remote supervision of the equipment.

05 · APIs↗

API·DATA · API·IV

Your data where it is useful: BI, open data, passenger information with vehicle position and occupancy rate.

06 · Monitoring↗

100% remote

Updates, configuration, self-diagnosis, 3D snapshots and contradictory video counting: your equipment supervised without boarding a single vehicle.

07 · Support↗

A team by your side

Dedicated project manager, installation, commissioning, training and follow-up: from preliminary design to the end of the contract.

08 · Studies office↗

Studies, consulting, R&D

An accurate study of your network and its ridership, so you can decide based on figures.

03 — Why count?

Counting passengers means deciding on facts.

Accurate counts reveal how passengers really use your network: where supply is short, where fraud settles in, where information is missing. Eight reasons to count.

01

Fight fare evasion

By cross-checking counts with ticket validations, CARE reveals the gaps per line and time slot: your inspection teams act where it matters.

02

Inform passengers

The position and occupancy of every vehicle, broadcast in real time on stop displays and in apps: everyone picks their bus, boardings spread out.

03

See the network in real time

Every vehicle located and coloured by its occupancy — green, orange, red: the network map becomes a real-time operations tool.

04

Match supply to demand

Under-sized peak hours, over-supplied off-peak: boardings per hour redraw your timetables with facts, not estimates.

05

Plan and rationalise routes

Origin-destination matrices show where your passengers come from and where they go: merging, extending or creating a route is decided on figures, not hunches.

06

Smooth flows in stations

At station entrances, counting spots congestion points and tracks how flows spread in real time: less waiting, more safety.

07

Objectify your contracts

Data certified above 98% for authority reports, free-fare assessments and investment decisions — with no argument about the source.

08

Anticipate overloads and incidents

Overload, bus bunching, door without count, GPS loss: thirteen configurable notifications warn operations before passengers notice.

04 — Proof, not promises

Ten years of counting, in numbers.

Since 2016, WEBREATHE has equipped urban, intercity and rail networks. The figures below are our own, not market estimates.
