Dilax Systems provides passenger counting systems for transit.
Dilax has developed and manufactured its own passenger counting sensors since 1988 and supplies both the hardware and the analytics layer. The SLS-1000 uses structured-light 3D sensing, with a laser projector and camera building a depth profile and integrated AI distinguishing people from bicycles and wheelchairs. An onboard counting unit stores and transmits data to a landside server, where Citisense combines it with timetable, location and third-party data to produce reports, forecasts and KPIs. Samplics supports sample-trip planning for partially equipped fleets.
TransLoc supplies an automatic passenger counting solution together with the supporting onboard hardware, designed to integrate with its own CAD/AVL platform and reporting dashboards. Counts are reported at 98–99% accuracy, meeting the FTA's 95% confidence and precision standard for National Transit Database reporting, and TransLoc also supports agencies through NTD certification. The units use polygon-based bi-directional counting to avoid double-counting, compensate automatically for sliding or swinging doors, and allow remote diagnostics without site visits. TransLoc's heritage is campus and shuttle transit, which is still reflected in its customer base.
GMV Syncromatics GMV SyncromaticsGMV supplies automatic passenger counting within its transit ITS platform, either installing a new APC system or integrating sensors an agency already owns. GMV Hub supports direct integration with iris, Hella Aglaia, Dilax, InfoDev and UTA sensors, so the counting hardware is third-party rather than GMV's own. Real-time passenger loads are viewable from the dispatch software, and historic ridership can be compared across routes and time periods. Reporting supports submissions to the National Transit Database.
ETA Transit APC ETA TransitETA supplies automatic passenger counting as an integrated solution rather than a sensor of its own, letting agencies select from supported hardware or connect equipment already installed. Its Vehicle Logic Unit reads the sensors and transmits counts in real time to SPOT, ETA's cloud CAD/AVL platform, whose reporting engine produces tabular, graphical and analytical ridership reports. Tally is the survey, validation and NTD-certification layer, used to run sample trips and reconcile automated against manual counts. ETA deployed the first Xovis, then HELLA, APC sensors in the US in 2013 at Miami, Florida.
