Brickstream, a provider of behavior intelligence solutions, announced the release of its Brickstream LIVE, a “smart” analytics device designed for businesses with brick and mortar locations to capture and analyze data about visitor behavior. Such data can then be used to enhance operations, security, and marketing. The new solution brings 3D customer behavior analytics, high resolution video surveillance, and wireless-based proximity data analytics into the confines of a single platform, removing the need for users to spend more on individual systems and technologies designed for people counting, queue, behavior analysis, and security/loss prevention.

Part of the company’s Smart Device family of behavior analytics products, Brickstream LIVE is described as a universal data collection IP-enabled platform requiring zero installation and configuration, making it suitable for those constrained by limited budgets.

Using less power than that of an 8W LED light bulb, Brickstream LIVE leverages 3D stereo vision technology to capture and analyze behavior data as people enter, move through and exit a physical environment. The 5 megapixel HD camera is fitted with a hemispheric lens for wide angle viewing and it can store the captured data as dual 15 frame per second (fps) H.264 video streams.

The Brickstream LIVE is built with a USB host port that can be used to expand data capture options, and additionally has two control ports that can be interfaced with building control systems and Electronic Article Surveillance (EAS). […]
