When set to Seat mode, a Portal Beam measures the occupancy of its assigned Smart Location seats. Seat occupancy is measured by the image captured by the Portal Beam's thermal camera field-of-view (FOV).
If you have two portal beams in the same room, contact your Kontakt.io representative or submit a request to our support team. We'll help determine the best placement for each Portal Beam.
Ceiling location: center of the area where seats are located and being measured.
Mounting height: the higher the Portal Beam is mounted, the greater the FOV coverage. For optimal coverage, refer to the coverage area specifications.
A Portal Beam detects people measurements by the thermal heat image captured within its field of view (FOV) coverage. Refer to the below table to calculate its mounting height coverage area.
Note
Calculations are based on an average people height of 6 ft (185 cm).
