Placemeter
12:16 AMPlacemeter is a very unique startup. It has been created to give people the power of knowing what a place is like before they get there. Placemeter collects and serve up-to-the-minute information like how crowded a place is, how long the wait is, and whether it will get more or less crowded in the next hour. Just like people can check the weather outside and the traffic along the way, they can now look up what to expect when they get there.
The concept is very simple. Placemeter let users put their old smartphone devices or placemeter on their windows. And collects data from various such placemeters placed across city. User gets paid a monthly fees depending on their location, view etc.
Under the hood, Placemeter is building the world's first real-time dynamic data layer. Used alongside static map databases, along with weather information, event calendars, and other information, Placemeter has been able to provide very accurate information and future predictions.
Placemeter data comes from a combination of network of live video cameras and user reports from mobile application. they use proprietary computer vision technology to calculate traffic levels from video feeds. With every new camera added to the system, placemeter can provide more accurate information about more places.
