Frequently asked questions

Does Horus crowd detection work with existing cameras?

Yes. Horus connects to any RTSP or ONVIF-compatible IP camera you already have installed. No hardware replacement is required. Most deployments are live within a day.

Is crowd detection data stored in the cloud with Horus?

No. All video processing happens on-premise, on hardware within your facility. Raw footage is never uploaded to external servers. Only structured analytics data (event counts, alerts, reports) is accessible through the Horus dashboard.

Horus crowd detection is deployed across Hospitality, Education, Healthcare, Logistics & Warehousing. The on-premise architecture makes it suitable for any industry where data privacy, compliance, or network security requirements prevent cloud video processing.
