CleverCount is an automatic passenger counting solution built on iris IRMA MATRIX time-of-flight sensors working with Clever Devices' own IVN onboard computer. Counts feed CleverInsights for cleaning, validation and NTD reporting, with Ridecheck Plus for survey management and CleverReports for wider agency dashboards. The APC reporting layer can be deployed standalone, alongside third-party systems, or as part of the complete CleverCount solution. Clever Devices supplies a broad ITS portfolio, so purchase orders typically bundle APC with other systems.

iris designs and manufactures the IRMA family of automatic passenger counting sensors, used in public transport worldwide since the company's founding in Berlin in 1991. Current lines are IRMA 6R2 and IRMA MATRIX, both using time-of-flight sensing to build 3D depth images and detect passengers alongside luggage, wheelchairs, strollers and bicycles. IRMA onAir is a cloud IoT platform that connects fleet sensors and exposes a Reporting REST-API for third-party business-intelligence tools rather than providing ridership analysis directly. iris sensors are resold inside several other products in this landscape.

Connexionz supplies automatic passenger counting as part of its wider CAD/AVL and passenger information platform for small and mid-sized agencies. Counting uses the iris IRMA MATRIX lidar sensor under a partnership, delivering 98%+ accuracy and distinguishing adults, children, closely spaced riders, wheelchairs, bicycles and strollers. Counts reach agencies through the Connexionz Business Intelligence application, which produces ridership, on-time performance and NTD reporting. Where formal NTD certification is required, Connexionz works with Urban Transportation Associates, which also appears separately in this landscape.
