Sàvant Data System offers intelligent solutions including people counting solutions, business intelligence and in-store analytics. Its partners have been benefiting by counting and tracking visitors in malls and other retail outlets in the region. Sàvant Data System deploys advanced solutions that accumulate information, which become the basis for strategic decisions in improving sales, monitoring market activities and controlling operational costs.
“The technology falls under the category of customer behavioural analytics, which encompasses financial services to business by leveraging traffic patterns and demographic data of consumers,” says Vic Bageria CEO and CVO at Sàvant Data System.
This aspect is useful in identifying patterns that strengthen business capabilities. Moreover, people counting platforms are effective means in tracking consumer paths – where, how, when and which transactions are frequented by customers that lead to favourable responses to offers, campaigns and advertisements. It also equates to retail insights packaged as a technology solution that intensifies the internal decisions of business leaders in terms of selecting external retail options and identification of trends.
Sàvant Data System offers in-store analytics and heat map analysis reports that clearly shows the entry-exit behaviour of visitors in a company’s business space. The reports increase understanding of the success of particular zones and identifying the basis for unsuccessful areas of physical stores. The heat map keeps track of visitors as they enter the store essentially determining the hot zones that lead to occupancy of shoppers.
The technology architecture is primarily based on OpenCV, OpenNI, Python and Java. It is generally integrated with cloud model subscription on-site. The use of edge devices such as image processing and advanced video analytics is always recommended. Big data business analytics and usage of back-end user equipment is also integrated.
The vendor also provides business intelligence in the form of a software toolkit suite that paves the way for database administrators, power users, end users and IT staff to manage, build, and share applications without having to undergo the tedious learning process of understanding the programme.
Sàvant Data System technology can be best used with 3D sensors that prevent instances of shadow, obstructions and other issues that lead to inaccuracies.
The products are tested and prepared to overcome general challenges when integrated into business systems. However, adoption of these technologies is varied, and face challenges in the region with regard to tracking systems since these have issues in close interactions.
