How do the Sensors work?
The HoxtonAi Sensor uses computer vision technology to monitor people entering or leaving a space.
The Sensors are placed above doorways and entrances where the onboard camera uploads video to the HoxtonAi Cloud for detection. All videos are automatically anonymised on the device before being uploaded. No personal information is ever gathered.
Sitting in the cloud is where our HoxtonAi algorithms get to work! Using artificial intelligence, the algorithms process the videos to then generate a count of 'Ins' and 'Outs' for the entrances being covered. This data is then reported to our informative dashboard in near real time for our clients to use. The dashboard can be viewed on any mobile, tablet or computer with internet connectivity.
If all entrances and exits are covered within a space, the sensors can be used to provide Live Occupancy of that space. Alerting can also be provided if the occupancy exceeds user defined thresholds.

What are the Network requirements?
The HoxtonAi Sensor can connect via Wi-Fi or fixed ethernet connection to transmit data to the cloud. Minimum requirements are:
- 1Mbit/s - Upload
- 1Mbit/s - Download
Sensors require constant connectivity. Please ensure that you provide adequate network coverage for the sensors when installing them.
For Wi-Fi connectivity the Sensors can operate on both 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz bands. For ethernet, please use cables that are rated Cat5e or higher.
Our Sensors make use of the following ports for operation:
- 443 TCP
- 123 UDP
- 53 UDP
Additionally, you should whitelist the following domains for the relevant ports above:
- *.balena-cloud.com
- *.amazonaws.com
- hoxton.cloud
- *.googleapis.com
- 8.8.8.8
- *.pool.ntp.org
Our Sensors make use of DHCP - we are looking at adding static IP functionality in the future.
If the network you would like to connect to has any of the following properties:
- Hidden SSID
- Splash page
- Company firewall
