AcroView iSpot is the audience measurement module that can be used to
track the eye-balls of the viewers facing towards the signage or display. It
enhances the AcroView AVM platform to prove the reach and measure the
effectiveness of content display. The face images of viewers are
automatically detected and counted in real-time to provide the data for
analyzing the effectiveness of the display.
AcroView iSpot comes as a customized unit with a digital camera and
proprietary software that can run on its own or in conjunction with digital
signage. The eyeball tracking engine is based on face-detection algorithm
to track the faces of the viewers. Thresholds for face angle and gaze
duration can be defined to provide more accurate counts. The correlation of
the specific content display and face counts is principally based on the time
of display and time of capture. These information are useful for out-of-home
advertising display applications that can now provide the measure on the
effectiveness of a specified ad displayed in a specific time for specific
location.
