QNAP® Systems, Inc., a leading computing, networking and storage solution innovator, today launched QVR Human - a people counting solution running on QNAP NAS that analyzes live video streams (from RTSP or QVR Pro servers) and provides real-time counting data and analytics. QVR Human enables users to optimize operational efficiency and increase conversion rates in retail stores.

QVR Human allows retailers to calculate customer traffic, popular in-store checkout counters and sections, and gain insights into peak times. The statistics analyzed by QVR Human allows users to discover ways to increase sales conversion, optimize staffing schedules, and improve services and marketing effectiveness. With QVR Human’s user-friendly interface, users can easily define tracking areas using a graphical interface, manage several camera channels and monitor previous data in a chart.

“QVR Human enables data intelligence and provides businesses with comprehensive people counting data. Retail businesses can gain greater operational insight based on proven statistics over relying on personal observations.” said Xavier Hsu, Product Manager of QNAP.

The QVR Human API is also available for system integrators to retrieve traffic data, enabling a combination of people counting data with POS data to help users to plan sales strategy to increases conversion rates and sales revenue.
