The core of the ZiiCON technology is based on 3D image processing of data obtained by 3D sensors.
We set one of our main goals on the robust detection of the persons, human pose estimation, and the interpretation of gestures. Beyond that, our expertise and algorithms are transferable to other problem domains, which can be resolved using image sensors.
The ZiiCON software is based on a core module, which provides an abstraction of the utilized camera technology and thus achieves an independence of hardware for resulting applications. Furthermore, both our own algorithms as well as established third party solutions can be employed for person tracking.
This yields a wide degree of flexibility to devise the best customized solution for complex applications.
Direct sunlight and extreme weather conditions often pose a challenge to image processing applications. Therefore, outdoor installations generally require solutions that are specially tuned towards the conditions at hand.
ZiiCON has successfully implemented interactive systems with BIPA and RAUCH, which operate reliably in the presence of direct sunlight. For this purpose, dedicated algorithms where optimized for the tolerance of incomplete and noisy data.
In the context of interactive applications in public areas, ZiiCON has gathered a lot of experience since the first installation in 2010.
This experience we happily share with our customers and support them in devising a first vision, creating a concrete conceptual design, and implementing a fully functional application. Our customers value this all-in service and utilize the expertise of ZiiCON to achieve a high level of visibility and a memorable experience for their target audience.
Advertising and information content can be manipulated or controlled by unintentional or intenional movements and gestures of humans passing by.

The ZiiCON AD (advertising system) technology opens up an entirely new way of dialog to give your customers an immersive experience on digital signage panels. With gesture recognition in front of promotion spaces we enable people to actively participate in media content to bring advertising spots to life.
The concept of the ZiiCON AD technology is readily outlined: A projection screen or LCD display shows a compilation of ads. Special 3D-cameras track the observers in front of the advertising space and enable them to manipulate the displayed media content in real-time with body movements and gestures. Consequently the observer's actions are translated into visual effects according to the advertisers specifications, which leads to an increased perception rate of the advertising message.

ZiiCON ST provides our customers with a tool for the statistical analysis of the frequency and the behavior of pedestrians. The system employs 3D cameras for robust people detection within a customizable region of the camera's field of view. For the defined tracking area, the system produces the total number of pedestrians. Since our system tracks people permanently within the detection area, it estimates the dwell time of individuals and the overall people flow. This enables insght into the average time pedestrians spend in front of an advertising site as well as detailed information about preferred travel paths.
The system was developed for digital and interactive advertisement. In this context, we are able to associate the results with individual content within an advertising loop so that advertisers received a precise evaluation of their own advertising campaign.
ZiiCON ST consists of a 3D camera and respective evaluation software. The software can be installed on existing hardware if specifications are satisfied. The collected person data is made anonymous and is accumulated per hour so that a daily overview of the statistics is available for each site. That data is either stored locally for later collection or will be transmitted to a central server for convenient visual inspection over a web-interface.
Typical digital POS content, such as product promotions, can be manipulated or controlled by unintentional or intenional movements and gestures.
Application:
- for retail stores or shop windows (for example contactless window-shopping or effective windows-decorations)
- integration of the technology into standup displays possible
Designed for:
- Agencies
- Retailers | POS
